There is nothing about emoji in this article.

I wish email had this feature. Sometimes I might ask someone to do something, and when they reply like "Done", it would be nice to just react with a thumbs up or something rather than continuing the chain of emails with a "Thank you" etc

Surprisingly, Office 365 Exchange + Outlook has this now. https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/like-an-email-messa...

The article is very relevant, it's using "reactions" instead of a full "me too" comment or email.

Slack just happens to express reactions using emoji.
