This is a reply to "thebondservant" regarding their response on March 21, 2024.
Background: Up to last fall of 2023, I had been using the Windows 10 Mail, People, Calendar apps. I then was forced by Microsoft over to the "new Outlook." Note that I never used the "classic Outlook" desktop program that's part of Office loaded on my desktop. I quickly experienced the many great features I was used to having were not available in the "new Outlook." I am getting more comfortable with the new Outlook but I have two significant issues with it that no one seems to be able to help me with solutions...Microsoft tech help center, web forums, Microsoft Community, etc. I have Windows 10 and using new Outlook email program...
- I cannot keep incoming emails (unread/bold) that arrive in my inbox, to turn "un-bold" when read (clicked on). Also, when I move "read" emails to other folders or trash bin, they turn back to being "bold" like unread emails.
- I have been unable to find a solution online through Microsoft Support and forums, on how to turn off the "autosave" feature in new Outlook. It is very frustrating to have partial draft emails saved at different stages to the "draft" folder, not knowing what really had been sent or not. Also, an occasional draft email continues to remain in the draft and/or delete folders and I cannot make them disappear forever. I delete them and they will return next time I access the delete folder.
I really appreciate any possible help. Thank you.
