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

Join any meeting with Lync mobile, no account required.

Lync got an update for iOS tonight, and there was one particular feature I found interesting: the ability to join any Lync meeting, even if you yourself is not a Lync user. 

Here is how it works:
Click on the meeting invite, like this one:

This will bring you to the well known meeting page. But instead of staying there, with Lync Mobile installed, Lync will launch and ask you how to connect:


You may now select to connect to the meeting as a guest (just as the website will). Enter your name, and connect to the meeting. 


Here is a short list of the other new features/fixes as well. Great work team!
