What changed:
Copilot Search now includes a "Sort by" filter for Outlook Mail results, allowing sorting by date in both ascending and descending order. Previously, search results were presented without sorting options, limiting users' ability to organize emails by date. This update improves result relevance and user control over mail searches.
Why:
Sorting mail results by date helps users quickly find recent or older emails, improving efficiency in managing Outlook Mail through Copilot Search.
Try this:
Open Copilot Search and enter your query.
Select the "Sort by" filter above the Outlook Mail results.
Choose ascending or descending date order to reorder the emails.
Why this matters:
Sorting mail results by date saves time and reduces effort when locating specific emails in large mailboxes.
Business impact:
Teams can respond faster by locating relevant emails without manually scanning unsorted search results.
Personal impact:
You spend less time searching through emails and more time focusing on important messages.
