Retiring Connections will cause me to discontinue my MS O365 Business plan, guess we have to go back to MailChimp. Shame on you Microsoft.

Resend a campaign to addressees who haven't opened the email
It would be useful to be able to resend a campaign to only those people who haven't yet opened the email.

delete expired campaigns
There should be a way to delete campaigns to manage storage. I have generated a number of campaigns simply in testing. I would like to delete them and, once I use Connections in production, be able to delete old campaigns so that I don't need to scroll through hundreds of ages to find one I want to replicate.

Office 365 Graph Content Pack in Power BI and Data Connector in Flow/Power Apps
Office Graph Data is extremely valuable. Being able to access it in Power BI, Flow and Power Apps is hugely valuable. It's possible with custom connectors/home brew now. It needs to be available to power users without code.

Download results
You can upload data from a csv but no way to download. would be good if could download all data, contacts with campaign results, i.e. success, failed delivery, unsubscribe etc. so we could then bulk edit and re upload changes. i need to be able to download so can update our crm system. don't like the idea of copy and pasting for the next few hours

Import and add to specific mailing list
During the import there is a option to enable marketing email however we would need to have the option to add people to specific mailing lists as currently it adds them to all mailing lists including ones that are not relevant to them.
3 votesThanks for your comment. We’re working on this feature now. You’ll soon be able to choose a specific mailing list and your imported contacts will get added to that list as part of import.

Voice message
In place of writing an email I suggested to record a voice to make message easier deliver and more clear to receiver also more secure than someone using your email, also listening easy than reading and more clear. Also more healthy for keeping our eyes away from screen .

Hi, is there a way to test (trial mode) Microsoft Connections before deciding to upgrade to Office365 Business Pro from the standard suite?
At the moment our organization has the Office365 Business plan, from the Business Pro plan we're interested to test Microsoft Connections as a solution for sending out newsletters. Is there a way to test Connections before upgrading the plan? Many thanks!

CONTACTOS EN BANDEJA ENTRADA Y NOMBRE REMITENTE COGER EL DE AGENDA
Hello everyone,
my suggestion is:In the inbox, the sender name that you see should be able to be changed by the name you have recorded in the contacts or calendar.
All other email management programs do it and on cell phones as well.
More than anything that many times you have to decipher email that we know where it comes from and if it is a contact that you already have established.Waiting for you to implement it.
Thank you very much

Contacts filter for those not on a mailing list
Within contacts you can filter in various manners but cannot filter those that are not on a mailing list so that you can allocate accordingly, or mailing list specific. Those not on a mailing list may have signed up via the 'sign up page' in Connections but you will have no idea who has signed up. So suggested filter options in Contacts:
Contacts not on a mailing list.
New contacts, added within last 30 days.
Mailing list specific.Plus notification by email of new sign ups (an option to turn this off should be included as some might receive excessive…

Can we import contacts from Dynamics 366 into Microsoft Connections?
It doesn’t appear that there is any ability to import contacts from Dynamics 365 into Miscrosft Connections. In Dynamics 365 we now have the ability to create unique contact lists. And because Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Connections are together in the same platform you would think and expect that this capability would naturally be made available.

Auto-unsubscribing bug in Connections
I run a mailing list in Connections and noticed a much larger than average percentage of users unsubscribed. Some of these in the months that followed then telephoned and complained they hadn't got our mailout. In discussion and sessions with support, it appears as though if ever an email is not successfully sent to (for example, inbox full etc), the contact is auto-unsubscribed, or so it seems.
I know from past mailout uses (constant contact for example), that some contacts return email not successfully sent, but in fact they have got them when you speak to them about it. Constant…
2 votesWe’re investigating this issue and we’ll reach out to you via email so we can work with you to understand what’s gone wrong.
The intended behavior is to unsubscribe users when the email provider responds with a permanent errors — for example, when the email provider tells us the email address does not exist. We’re taking this step to protect your spam reputation with that email provider, since some providers penalize senders who send to addresses that don’t exist.
However, this should not be unsubscribing users who experience temporary issues (like their mailbox is full), and we will investigate why your subscribers with valid email addresses were unsubscribed. Thank you for all the information you provided to help us take a look.

Allow embedding of video
Hello,
Please allow embedding of video directly onto new and existing templates.
Thank you.
2 votesWe’d love to know more details if you have a chance to add a comment to this suggestion. Will the video be the primary focus of your email campaign, or are you mostly planning to use the video as supporting content for your main image and text?
