I have switched over to the "New Outlook" and some functions did not switch over also. How do I turn on the auto capitalization of the 1st word of a sentence? How do I turn back on auto capitalizing the letter i? Thank you for any help!!!!

    It does sort of work, but you need to highlight the text first, and each and every time, as it won't stay as the default.

    It's just another annoying/unnecessary step though, no substitute for auto-formatting the capitals like in old versions of Outlook, just needs to have the option to set the Sentence case formatting as default really, as 99% of people will want to use it in emails and are used to the old behaviour. Surely this is a simple change.

    **** knows what MS are doing, probably adding more data logging(stealing) **** instead of the stuff users actually want.

    Same problem here plus the RESEND EMAIL is no longer there in the new outlook. This is obscene for a "new" version to be released that deletes some very bvasic functions that have been there forever.

    I tried the suggestions above and the "Change case" is grayed out so that I cannot click it.

    as with everything about the new outlook this doesn't work for me either, basically all of the buttons you outline above have no function.

    i am super excited about the new outlook, i get to start over as a new outlook user and learn all over again.

    Good response, but they won't understand irony.
