Outlook – way to switch to Reply All after pressing Reply in Outlook 2013

emailmicrosoft-outlook

Sometimes I press reply in Outlook and start composing a message, but half way in realize that there were other recipients in the original and I want to reply to them all instead of just the sender. In Gmail you can press Reply All while replying and it will change the recipients, but this doesn't work in Outlook. So I'm forced to copy the text I've written, discard the message, press Reply All and paste it.

Is there a way to switch from Reply to Reply All more seamlessly (the way Gmail does)?

Best Answer

No, it is not a "one button click" way to do this.

You have two options:

  1. Copy the recipients of the original mail and paste them into the "Cc" field of the new mail you are composing.

  2. As you said yourself, copy the text you have written, and start over by using "Reply all".

The first option would probably be easiest.
