Feature overview

After further review, we are not able to continue rolling this out at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience. When users are in Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint apps, and they want to share a file that is saved locally in their device (not stored in a cloud location), the new Outlook for Windows will show up as a share target and they will be able to easily email the file. #newoutlookforwindows.
