No, not conversations, actual data. Think reports, invoices, large PDFs, etc. Emailing files to yourself, that sort of thing. Then they end up with multiple PSTs.

I very much prefer Outlook's indexing compared to Sharepoint's shitty UI and search capabilities.

Copilot search is great for searching SharePoint

I came back to reread this last sentence three times. Well done, sir, well done!

In my experience it is. Unless your IT leadership blew it on Sharepoint governance, which isn't MS's fault.

Yet Sharepoint remains slow garbage.

I mean, yeah if your choice is between Email or SharePoint, email wins every time.
But I've seen enough corrupted PST files in my days to never trust Outlook/Exchange as permanent file storage.
Now with "New" Outlook you don't even get that, you get an ODT cache file, everything else is permanently server side in Microsoft land.
Enterprise "productivity" software is fundamentally broken.
