Hi @Motew, Steve,
I would like to have the total word count of an e-mail be automatically listed at the top (or better yet subject) of an e-mail.
I am afraid this is currently not feasible using the built-in features available in Outlook client.
Given this, you may refer to the steps below to manually insert the word count the top or subject of the email:
- After composing the email, go to the Review tab, in the Proofing group, click Word Count to view the total word count of the message.
- Manually enter the word count at the top or subject.
I've also tried submitting this idea into the dedicated feedback portal for Outlook clients. The link would be left below so that you and other community members who see our discussion here can vote on the feature as well.
