New features

Microsoft has added some new features to the roadmap page that will soon be available in the new Outlook for Windows 11. One of these features is support for PST files. This will allow users to open these files in read-only mode and browse messages. However, this only applies to the Mail section.

In addition, frequently used folders can be pinned to the navigation pane for faster access to favorite folders. Copilot is also getting an upgrade. When writing an email body, you can not only help the AI ​​assistant compose a completely new email, but also ask it to customize certain boring parts. In addition, Copilot will soon be able to help you create meeting invitations, where the bot can pre-fill all the sections based on the email thread.

Additionally, Outlook allows you to customize the sync window. Allows users to save conversations locally on the PC for a specific period of time. Currently, this is a default setting that offers a fixed number of days, for example, 7, 30, 80, and 180 days.

The full list of new features in development can be found on the official roadmap page.
