Daily briefing emails in Microsoft 365

A new daily briefing email will start dropping into Microsoft 365 users’ Outlook inboxes from this month.

Microsoft are releasing a new feature for Office 365 users called the Briefing. This is an email which automatically gets sent at the start of each workday, giving a personalised view of the day ahead.

With insights based on the user’s own email and calendar, tasks and documents, the Briefing helps you prepare for meetings, keep commitments with tasks and actions, and block out focus time for deep work.

The Briefing is enabled by default for all users with Exchange Online, but users can unsubscribe if they don’t want to continue receiving it. Administrators can also disable the feature across their organisation.

The Briefing will be released in June 2020, and the first release will be made available to Microsoft 365 Enterprise users with Exchange Online mailboxes in English. More information is available on the Microsoft website.
