Copilot in Outlook: Prioritize my inbox

on
Microsoft is releasing a new feature for Copilot in Outlook: "Prioritize my inbox by Copilot". The feature can go through your inbox and analyse the content for you. it will then mark them as high and low priority and help you focus on the tasks that are important to you. When the feature rolls out, it will be implemented as an opt-in feature for users, and it will be a "limited seating" until there is enough capacity for all within the organization. When available and enabled, there will be ways to tell Copilot what is important to you. You can read more about this on the support pages for the feature. A couple of notes: It will only prioritize in your main inbox (Not subfolders) It will not work on shared mailboxes or groups This feature is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 411302  and will start rolling out in April 2025

What is a Charter certificate

on

I have been a mcp since 1998, and never been aware of the charter "program". So I was a bit surprised when I discovered the line on the two newly downloaded certificates.

According to Microsoft's learning site, a "Charter members" are: "..Charter Members are the pioneering group of individuals who achieve a certification within six months following the retail release date of the certification. Charter Members are recognized by receiving the Charter version of the certificate acknowledging their early adoption of the certification.


In all my years as a mcp, mcse ++, I've always been told they're worth "nothing" and that anyone can just braindump themselves to a title. Well, hat off to Microsoft for recognizing those who certify early. Now I can say I have proof that I did not braindump my way to the Lync. There is no way the braindumpers get around to create good dumps within the timelimit given.

These to certifications now really mean something for me and my employer. And now that I am aware of the program, I'll strive to take the next certification as a charter member as well.
