Email reminder and follow up in New Outlook missing

Hi.

I am currently using 'New Outlook'. Previously I was able to set a reminder/follow up on the email either before or after sending as a reminder to do so.

Sadly I cannot find it. Has it been omitted?

This was a very important tool, please reinstate this incredibly useful and productive feature.

    I wont be reverting to New Outlook until this is fixed or I'm forced to because the switch the old one off.

    That's perfectly fine. New Outlook isn't feature complete yet and is in an optional preview status when you are a Classic Outlook user.

    You can continue to use Classic Outlook until at least (!) 2029. Communications about the exact date will be made a year in advance or even earlier.

    Then what's the blimming point in bringing out the New Outlook if it's not "feature complete"? Besides, this is nothing NEW! A new version is suppose to be "better". Hopefully, I will have retired by 2029 and not have to bother with this.

    Has anyone from MS be on here to enlighten us why the feature is no longer there? Or if it is there, how we find it? It's a blooody nuisance, that's what it is!
