Hi, I am using the most recent version of Office 365 Outlook, and since I updated to the new layout, I am not able to copy a complete email anymore.

The only option I have is to copy and move the email to a certain number of preset folders. However, I mostly use this function to copy and add the email to an ongoing but different email thread. It seems that this not possible anymore or at least I don't how to do it.

Thanks for anyone's advice.

    I experienced the same issue. It is important to copy an email into a folder for future reference and it worked perfectly in previous Outlook. Please take this back to Microsoft powers and bring this option back. Much appreciated

    Honestly, I am so disappointed with this new look.

    I don't know why was this new version required instead of making things more easier and flexible.

    It is so annoying, you can not copy or paste, for every email you need to tick mark the "Cc" options.

    The signatures don't automatically appear in the email.

    This is so frustrating.
