    I’ve been seeing people relying to my question for the past year and very surprised that Microsoft did not add this feature.

    When will we be able to use links to our own server folders / documents?

    I am flabbergasted that this functionality has been disabled and this is incredibly short-sighted of Microsoft.

    Almost 10 months since this was posted and still no updates or replies. When is MS going to be correcting this glaring problem?

    Eleni: what has happened regarding this since your last reply? It seems that the community is not getting any response.

    Very disappointed in the new outlooks for this and several other reasons, Software updates should always ADD functionality not REMOVE functionality. Can you please explain the rationale behind removing this functionality?

    Lots of people here waiting for a reply.....

    I was able to find a work around using some HTML code. If you insert a hyperlink in the New Outlook, for web address type "File:///" + you file path the link will work for people you send it too as long as their drives are named the same as yours.

    Eg. File:///M:/SomeFolder

    I still don't understand why this isn't fixed yet and is forcing us to use a work around to get something done in the new Outlook.

    I'm however very thankful for your help to link an internal server file.
