Summary:
Microsoft OneNote will retire the "me@onenote" feature on March 26, 2025, due to low usage. Users should use the "Send to OneNote" feature in Outlook instead. No admin action is required, but users should be informed and documentation updated accordingly.
Details:
As part of our Secure Future initiative and our commitment to safeguarding customer data, we are making important updates to the me@onenote feature in Microsoft OneNote on the web.
What is the change?
We will retire the me@onenote feature on March 26, 2025, due to low usage and the availability of an alternative feature, Send to OneNote. After the retirement, users will not be able to send Microsoft Outlook emails to OneNote using the me@onenote feature. Instead, we recommend using the Send to OneNote feature in Outlook, which allows users to send email messages and meeting invitations directly from Outlook to their OneNote notebooks and sections. The Send to OneNote feature ensures a seamless transition and continued functionality.
How will we communicate this change to users?
Users will find this banner on the me@onenote page: The me@onenote feature will be deprecated in March. To continue sending your Outlook emails to OneNote, please use the Send to OneNote feature:
Users who send use the me@onenote feature after Mach 26, 2025 will receive an auto reply about the retirement with a link to the Send to OneNote feature.
What action is required on my part?
This change will happen automatically by the specified date. No admin action is required. Please notify your users about this change, update relevant documentation as appropriate, and share the Send to OneNote alternative feature.
We thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work to enhance our services.
