In the "new" Outlook, I can no longer attach emails to Calendar items, even when I have created the item. Is there are work around for this?

I'm just adding onto the list of people for whom this function is a major loss. I loved being able to take an email that needed a significant amount of my time and quickly add it to my calendar. This allowed me to quickly let folks know when I'd have the time to give them what they need.

It is no longer an option to use the old Outlook at work. Has this issue been resolved? In the past I just copied an email and pasted it into a calendar event to attach it. That was the main way I tracked what tasks I needed to complete. Please let me know if there's a simple way to attach emails to calendar events.
Thanks,
Iz
Hi Iz,
I have the same issue as a new user of New Outlook.
The only way how i could add a previous email as an attachment to the calendar event, is the following: I've downloaded the original email, and made an upload from my computer.
Not a convenient one, but at least something... hope i could help.

Any update on this?
Are there plans to address this loss of functionality anytime soon? While I do appreciate the new 'meetings insights' section in Outlook invites which tries to address this, I am a heavy user of Outlook invites with attachments for project meetings. As far as I can tell there is no ability to attach other Outlook emails nor separate docs unless I'm missing something.
