Microsoft reveals new-look Outlook

Microsoft Outlook is getting an image overhaul, in the form of a design revamp and a range of new features.

The tech giant has tweaked its email service to offer a more refined inbox, featuring "Clutter", which can be trained to organize messages and place those most likely to be ignored in a separate folder. Other new developments include search suggestions and refiners, link previews and pins and flags, as well as the addition of 13 new graphic design themes.

This update, which is part of a wider overhaul of the Office 365-based infrastructure, is currently available to a small group of users in Preview. The new-look result will be made available to a broader audience through an opt-in program over the coming weeks.
