Copilot in Outlook: Prioritize my inbox

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

Teams native federation being rolled out

This feature was announced earlier this year, but have taken some time to get implemented. This feature will give users a richer experience when chatting with users outside of the home tenant with federated functionality.

However, not all users are eligible for this feature. The official documentation has been updated with a description of how it is expected to work: Microsoft Docs

The short story is: Both users must be in a tenant set in "Teams Only" mode, and have these same settings themselves. You know this is the case when you can use features like @mentions, rich text and emojis in the chat.

According to the road-map, this feature should be well on the way to your tenants and land no later than "early December": 52394
