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

A couple of new Teams features an admin might want to know about

on

 A couple of policies have received new settings or defaults over the past couple of weeks, and here are some of those i think you might want to look into.

Message translation:
Message translation has now been set to default "on" in the global user policy. If your users have assigned custom policies, these might not have that setting turned on by default. If you want to allow your users this handy feature, Make sure to go through your policies according to this guide.

Allow more badges in the Praise app:
You can add a little flare to the praise app by adding more custom badges for your organization. But this requires the admin to add these badges in the Teams Admin portal. This feature should be rolling out by the end of September.

Meeting policy and meeting expiration:
Teams is introducing meeting expiration to their meeting policies. Which to my understanding will ensure all meetings created by a user will no longer be accessible to anyone. Previously, the meeting policy would only affect new meetings after the policy was implemented, but the new way it will work is to expire any previously created meeting by the affected user. Read more about how this works here.
