explanation for non-techies**

Imagine you're hosting a dinner party and you've sent out invitations to your friends. After sending them, you realize you need to change the location from your house to a nearby restaurant. In the past, if you told your friends about the change, they might have only received a brief note saying "Dinner at 7 PM," without mentioning the change in location. This could lead to confusion, as they might still head to your house instead of the restaurant.

Now, think of Microsoft Outlook as the tool you're using to send out these invitations. With the new update, if you change the location of your event, the email notification your friends receive will clearly say "Event Updated" and include the new location. This way, everyone knows exactly what's changed and can adjust their plans accordingly.

This update is being rolled out between late June and late July 2025, and it will automatically be applied, so there's no need for any technical setup or admin actions. However, it's a good idea to inform your team or colleagues about this change so they know what to expect. This ensures everyone is on the same page and reduces any potential confusion about event details. Just like updating your friends about the new dinner location, keeping your team informed helps everything run smoothly.

If the user has already RSVP'd to an event, and the organizer makes an update to the title, subject, or location, the email update will show "Event Updated" and the updated location (if applicable). Previously, the email update would show the event time and not explain that the event has been updated. This feature will not affect events that the user has not responded to and will not affect event updates where the organizer changes the time.
New Experience:


Old Experience: If an organizer updates the title, location, or description of an event that the user has already responded to, the email update will only display the event time.
