Microsoft is constantly changing desktop Outlook, usually for better but occasionally for worse (one unfortunate change from October is mentioned here<\/a>). But what many don’t know is that you can have a say in what features they add and remove. It’s called UserVoice and it’s built into Outlook—you just click a button\u00a0and type in your suggestions. I am told by insiders that it is one of the main places Microsoft goes when looking for new features and user opinions.<\/p>\n

If you have a suggestion on how to improve Windows desktop Outlook, here’s how to submit it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Click File at the top left of Outlook’s window.<\/li>\n
  2. In the list on the left of the window that opens, about two thirds down, click Feedback.<\/li>\n
  3. Click the Suggest a Feature button.<\/li>\n
  4. Enter your idea in the web page that pops up. Or scan through existing new ideas and vote for them.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So yes, you have a voice. Are you going to use it?<\/p>\n
