Please add the resend email functionality back into the new version of Outlook. This feature is utilized by myself and my team all the time, as each week we make minor changes to the previous weeks emails. I don't want to forward each week's email every time, I just want to hit resend, make any necessary changes, and then send the current updated email only. Not keeping that feature in the new Outlook was a big mistake...

    Hi lbennett512，

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community, we are glad to assist you here.

    Based on your post, we understand you want to get Resend button back on New Outlook.

    Please note the new Outlook is still in production/preview meaning some of the features are not yet available in new Outlook. As we tested and searched from our side, it seems this feature is not yet available in New Outlook, we are sorry for the inconvenience it may cause, and if you still need this feature, we suggest you to revert to Classic Outlook by clicking the switch button on the top-right corner.

    However, thank you so much for bringing this to our attention, your suggestion is very helpful, and we believe it could make the use of Outlook even better. We will surely raise your concerns to our Product Development Team and hopefully this can be included in the future updates. I recommend you reach out to our dedicated support for new Outlook for Windows within your Outlook, to submit your feedback. Contact support and provide feedback in new Outlook for Windows - Microsoft Support

    At this point, your cooperation and understanding is highly appreciated.

    Regards,

    Microsoft Community

    Adding my request to add this feature back. The advice to go back to the Classic Outlook is not viable as none of my rules work any longer in that version after being converted. So by making New Outlook a 'trial', it made it one direction. Not a wonderful experience.

    Please add the "resend" feature in the newest version. I use this feature in classic outlook everyday and it has been the sole reason that I have not switched to the new version yet.

    Workaround is to set/change rules only in outlook web and still use the classic version. For now New Outlook is good for simple home users, perhaps.

    Always thought of MS targeting more business, but I find it less and less useful.

    Simple yet crucial things missing on a daily basis:

    1. message resend - in New Outlook, mobile and web app
    2. easy copy / paste all recipients (mobile app)
    3. easy attachment management: sorting, renaming, copying/pasting (especially mobile app), "open with..." option, upload to specific folder
    4. easy distribution list management

    I can go on and on...
