Attach Recent Documents
This thing has happened with every Outlook user one or the other time. When we want to attach a document on which we were recently working and do not now its exact location, we tend to spend a lot of time in searching that very document.
If you are also in the list of such users, then you will be delighted with the all-new recent documents attach option in Outlook 2016. It shows all the documents that a user has recently worked on (only MS Office apps) and saves the user from putting efforts for searching the document.
Attach File
Attach Documents from Cloud
Outlook enables the users to attach documents as attachments stored in cloud in applications like OneDrive, Sharepoint, OneDrive For Business, etc. In Outlook 2016, you will get a new way to attach the documents. You can send the links of the saved files as attachments. This serves to be a benefit as it prevents the sprawling of documents and also creates a one-stop location for all the documents that need editing. You either can give them the rights to only view the documents or can also give them permissions to edit the documents.
Groups for Collaborating
Creating groups is yet another feature that Outlook 2016 has to offer its users. Once created, the user can use these groups to collaborate across other applications. The users can create groups and engage in conversations with full history and can access the group’s inbox, team events, join existing groups and also can create new groups. When you add a group as a favorite, you get the privilege of having full access to the conversation history in case you are offline.
Group Members
Clutter To Prioritize Messages
If your inbox folder is being stuffed with low priority messages, then the Clutter option will prove to be a great rescue feature for you. You can easily move low priority messages to clutter, so that only important messages reside in your inbox folder. In addition to this, the clutter itself analyzes the messages, which will be of least importance to you and will automatically move those messages to clutter folder.
Tell Me What You Want To Do…
Tell Me… feature enables the users to search for a specific function within a fraction of seconds. You can type whatever function you are looking for and will see all the related results as soon as you type in the box.
