How to Open Emails in Separate Window in New Outlook

Same issue. Not sure how this one was missed. Almost 30 years of Outlook usage, and it has always had this feature. Huge oversight by the dev team here that makes the new Outlook completely useless to me. Who opens just one email at a time? I've switched back for now.

What's frustrating here is that this is a clear bug, yet we're asked to submit "feedback" that it will "hopefully... be included in a future update". No... this is a bug. It needs to be reported as a bug by a Microsoft employee. We, as the users, should not have to beg via feedback portal for a bug to be fixed.

I am in the same boat. I just installed the new Outlook. I have two monitors. The one in front of me is my work surface. The monitor in the right runs Outlook all the time. When I double click a message it should open on my work surface (pop out message to a new window). This is not happening. Outlook is unusable to me if this function is not available.

Restating: Double clicking on a message DOES NOT open the message in a new window in the New Outlook. In fact, double clicking has the disastrous effect of launching whatever link is under the cursor after message opens due to the first click. NOT GOOD!

Expected solution. Add the option to open email in a new window on the first click.

I am using the double click in the email list. I am able to pop out. But once you do that, there is no ability to hit Next to go to the next email. You either close or delete. Then have to start the process all over again. Very inefficient.

Thanks for the information. When I double left click on an email, It doesn't open a new window.

The double left click on the email isn't opening in new window for me.
