The action "reply" or "reply all" is not available in quick steps for the new outlook

In the 'old' outlook I used to have several quick steps that included "reply" or "reply all" steps. For example: "reply all & archive" -> replied to the message, marked the original message as read and put the flag to completed

When creating quick steps in the new outlook, the option "reply" is missing from the "Choose an action" dropdown.

I also noticed that the quick steps that included these actions are not migrated in the new outlook.

Please bring this feature back.

    It's still missing, while you draw ever closer to eliminating "Classic". Typical MS fashion, force a bug ridden replacement for a product that you finally got working decently.

    Please bring this back, and the quick step option for initiating emails. In the old outlook I could use quick steps for template emails that included contact groups and everything in the template. I could also send "thank you" or "approved" emails with two clicks. "Improved" versions should provide MORE options for efficient email management, not fewer.

    Microsoft, can't believe you left this out. New versions are supposed to make things more efficient for the customer, now you are forcing us back to manual processes we had to follow several versions ago. Grrrr!
