This milestone will not affect existing users who continue to use classic Outlook for Windows; however, GA status   helps organizations move forward with their migration plans. A future announcement will cover General Availability for US Government clouds (GCC, GCC High, and DoD) and availability in other sovereign clouds.    <\/p>\n<p>The new Outlook continues to be an opt-in experience. Please note that this update does not change any settings for your organization, will not automatically switch users from the classic version of Outlook for Windows, and will not introduce any disruptive   changes. We will provide a 12-month notice prior to initiating any Microsoft-driven migration steps in managed environments.
