These updates are, in large part, based on customer feedback about the Groups subscription model. That model has now been replaced withFollow in inbox. Read more on these feature improvements in our Outlook blog post. We are rolling out these improvements in a phased manner. So, if you don’t see these improvements in your version of Outlook yet, please be patient. We’ll get these features to you soon! Thank you for all the feedback. Let us know what you think of these latest updates. Feature update: Email sending behavior for Groups in Outlook We have recently fixed the email sending behavior to a group, where senders had complained about receiving the emails they send to a group, back in their personal inbox. With this fix, senders will no longer receive the emails they send to a group, back in their personal inbox.The sender can receive email sent to group in there Inbox, they have to login to there mailbox using OWA, and then Settings->Mail->Groups->"Send me a copy of email I send to a group" The primary complaints we heard were about reading the same message users sent to a group multiple times - in their sent messages, and their inbox. We believe sending an email to a person or to a group should be consistent, and this circling back of an email from a group was just leading to confusion, unnecessary triage, and inconvenience for a lot of our users. We understand that some users had started using this inconsistent behavior as a way to confirm if their emails were delivered to a group. An email sent to a group is already available in the group's conversation archive as well as in the sender's sent email. Update (4/7/2017): Thanks for all your valuable feedback. Though a good majority of our users have embraced this change for Groups, there's also a section of our users who complained about this change affecting their workflows. We value all the feedback from our users and hence we are considering enhancing this feature to address the negative feedback. Please watch this space for further updates on this featurein the coming weeks. SolvedEnhancements to O365 Groups Calendar in Outlook - Never miss an event sent to a group. Groups in Outlook is being used by millions of users worldwide to improve collaboration and be more productive working with a group of people – be it for project collaboration, organizational groups or classroom groups. Onekey feedback we have received from you is that users sometimes miss groupevents as the invites sent to a group do notshow up in the members' personal calendars. Responding to this feedback around lost or missed group calendar invites, we will soon be rolling out a key enhancement to group calendar feature. With this enhancement, members of a group would always receive a copy of an event that was sent to a group in their personal inbox (in addition to the group mailbox), irrespective of their subscription settings for that group. Members can then action (accept/tentative/decline) on that invite just like they do for their personal calendar invites in their inbox. This way, members will always be in the know of all the group calendar events, and the event organizers can confidently create events without the fear of members missing events. Thanks for your continued feedback for O365 Groups, and keep it coming. This enhancement will be available to all O365 Groups users in the coming weeks. So, take it for a spin and let us know how you feel.
