    Why is there not a "like" or "thumbs up" equivalent in email? ๐Ÿ˜ญ I need them to know I got it but it definitely doesn't constitute a *reply* "Sounds good!" *send*

    Outlook 365 has a "like" button for email and I will say it is a very strange experience to get these likes in work emails.

      Isn't it only for the web client though? I don't see it on the desktop application. (I'm on mac)

      Looks nice but unfortunately it's not built into universal email standards... so does it check if the receiver is also using Outlook? Otherwise they won't ever see the "like". ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

      Just for the thumbs up option?

      +1 on this feature. Makes it super easy and lightweight to acknowledge mail without having to reply all with "thanks" again.

      Man, @Microsoft is continuing to surprise me every day. I am tempted to try it over Gmail now.

      You get a little notification that someone liked your email, and then you can also see a list of everyone who liked the email! I guess it's pretty well done.
