OneNote "Email Page" function not working with new Outlook

I conducted a meeting yesterday and sent out my notes with the Email Page function in OneNote.

This morning, I looked through my sent emails in the New Outlook and couldn't find the sent notes anywhere. Additionally, I didn't have them in my inbox either, which I would have expected since I was also an attendee.

Resent them this morning, thinking I must have forgotten to send them, but realized that the email window that opens when I click "Email Page" is from the old outlook. Opened the old outlook, and it instantly sent both my notes from yesterday AND my resent notes.

So basically, if you don't leave the old Outlook open, it seems you can't expect OneNote to actually email out your pages, even if you clicked send. The old outlook has to be opened up for the send to actually happen.

This needs to be fixed quickly. Believing that you sent something that never went out is a good way to set people up for failure.

    Yeah, I had the same issue. I just keep Outlook CLASSIC running in the background at all times. Seems to work if you do that. It's like starting an old car in freezing tempetures, gotta keep it running to work.

    I appreciate that that is a work around. Another work around is to just send from the old outlook app.

    But it isn't really a "fix."

    I've been recommending people vote for this one. "Email Page" and "Meeting Details" functionality using "New Outlook" uses legacy Outlook to send · Community

    A potential temp workaround while this bug is getting fixed, because I also need this Email Page function for New Outlook

    • save the email made as a draft in Old Outlook, exit, and then email it out from New Outlook

    Good call! I'm going to relay that info to our Project Management team, which is our most heavily impacted group for this issue. Thanks for posting this!
