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...

    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.

    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...

    The "New Outlook" is absolute and complete garbage. The resend feature has been missing since at least 2021, same is truefor fully functioning search folders. The only reason it has not failed in the marketplace is because corporate IT departments are shoving it down people's throats. At some point is seemed like Microsoft had changed its ways, but now they are back to their old monopolistic ways of bundling sub-standard software. Teams is a prime example. Little to no improvement in usability for 4 years.
