Question

With NEW OUTLOOK in Microsoft 365 I cannot forward more than 1 email to another person. Does anyone know how to fix?

Answer 1

I found a way to do that.

1. Select the e-mails that you want to forward
2. Click on "New e-mail" button.
3. Click in one of selected items, drag and drop them into the "new e-mail" window.

Answer 2

Microsoft 365 need to fix the inability to forward multiple emails at one time, along with many, many, many other things. I don't understand how Microsoft can put out such a sad product, especially with most everyone being forced to transition to it.

Answer 3

As per your issue description, I understand that you would are looking for an option to forward multiple emails at once in New Outlook.

I would like to inform you that, in New Outlook, currently the option to forward option is not available to forward multiple emails at once, which is available in classic Outlook. This option is still under development for future updates for New Outlook. However, we do not know the ETA of the feature to be rolled out in the future updates. Please make sure you keep your Office and new Outlook up to date to take advantage of feature updates as well as product corrections.

The workaround is to forward the emails by including them as attachments in an email by following the steps below.
1. Select the emails that you want to forward.
2. Click on New mail > Mail.
3. Drag and drop the selected emails to the new email. You should see that emails are added as attachments.
4. Now you can send this email to the recipient.
Note: The emails that are attached are in .eml format and hence, can be opened only within Outlook or Windows Mail app.

As this is an early preview of the new Outlook, not all functionality from classic Outlook for Windows is available yet. We are working on adding more aspects, for more details you can refer to the link: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/outlook-blog/things-to-know-about-the-new-outlook-for-windows/ba-p/3383964

It's stunning how such a basic and IMPORTANT feature allowing functional access to our email communications has been ignored for so long. Very disappointing . I've only used it because I had to for work, and it's become a nightmare. All I want is ti take my info and leave. I can't even do that! Outlook has wasted a lot of my time over the years but this really takes the cake.

Answer 5

It's more likely that your engineers are ignorant about how people use your products in the real world. I mean...do you not use your own programs? Why would you put out a product that's not ready and then explain away your mistakes as a "preview" of the eventual real product? We're not buying it.
