TL;DR
Copilot will review your emails as they arrive and assign a high, low or normal priority based on factors like people in the thread, their job titles, email content and more. Due April 2025.
Details
‘Prioritise’ will appear in the Copilot dropdown in the top corner of Outlook email. A setup wizard will help you enable this feature if you opt to enable it. It will only work on new emails your main inbox, not in folders or other mailboxes.
While Microsoft roll out this feature, there will be a limit to the number of users who can turn on the feature, at which point the ability to opt-in to the feature will become unavailable for a time.
Availability
Due April 2025.
