Send message with a larger than ~3 MB file attachment
Through Graph, there is NO way to compose or quick send a message having, let's say, a 6 MB PDF brochure. I'm not asking for attachments of hundreds of MB, but the current limitation is a huge bug.
UploadSessions in the context of Messages could be a solution path to the inherent limitation of embedding base64 file content in a Json.

Graph API support for O365 email export/import in eml (binary) format
Requirement - Graph API support for O365 email export/import in eml (binary) format
EWS provides support to export and import emails in the said format, this is particularly useful when we require export of an email or any item with full fidelity that includes all meta-data and attachments.
While Graph API can provide us all the meta-data, but import of an eml file is not permitted. Looking forward for this feature, as this can be used to backup mails on my local machine and restore if it is lost for some reason.
This will also ensure, feature parity between EWS…

SharedMailbox members (mailbox permissions) via Graph API
We are trying to get the members (mailbox permissions) of a SharedMailbox via Graph API. We do not see any Graph endpoint at the moment that can help us get this information. We are in the process of building a custom application where we need to be able to perform read and write operations of SharedMailbox membership/permissions. This functionality is certainly available via the exchange online powershell and I can imagine this being a critical functionality which is not yet available in Graph API. .

Allow to upload (POST) with a new Mail Message with MIME Content
As the Graph API now allows clients to retrieve the MIME content of an Email Message, it would be great if a new mail instance can be created using MIME instead of assigning individual properties i.e the Create Message endpoint should have support for uploading MIME Content.

Support setting the replied flag on messages
Our solution supports workflows that send out messages automatically using createReply and send, as well as the reply endpoint. These are considered auto-replies by the user and it is confusing that the replied flag shows up in outlook for the original message. Ideally, there would be a way, when using send or reply, to indicate whether the replied flag should be set on the original message. Alternatively, the ability to change the replied flag on a message would let us fix it after the fact.

Allowed set sensitivity option on mail messages
In EWS it was possible to set and read sensetivity option direct from mail messages. In MS Graph API the sensetivity type in only available on Events. It should be possible to send mails with private sensetivity option set. This is needed for a successful ews to ms graph migration.

Allow creating itemAttachments with nested attachments via the Graph API
Suppose my Inbox has 'Email 1', which has attachments on it.
Outlook allows me to attach 'Email 1' to 'Email 2' as an itemAttachment. I can even attach 'Email 2' to 'Email 3' to get another level of nesting.The Graph API allows me to create itemAttachments but appears to strip out nested attachments.
For example, the following request creates an itemAttachment but strips out the nested attachments (verified via API and Outlook client)
POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/messages/{some-msg-id}/attachments
Content-type: application/json
Content-length: 200{
"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.itemAttachment",
"name": "Hello world",
"item": {
…"@odata.type": "microsoft.graph.message",
"subject": "foobar",
"body": {
"contentType": "HTML",
"content": "lorem ipsum"

Ability to change the fields "receivedDateTime" and "sentDateTime" of email messages when creating them.
It is not possible to change the fields "receivedDateTime" and "sentDateTime" of email messages via Graph API. I'd like to change it without using workarounds.

Graph API to list the Mail forwarding details for all the users for a tenant using the auth token for global admin account
As a security monitoring expert for an organization, we need to get the details of all the users under a particular tenant to list the email forwarding user ids. Using this information the organization can evaluate the security profile. Currently, this information is available using PowerShell.
Suppose a user john@contosa.com has rule enabled to forward some or few of his mail to another email id. We want to have a list of such users.

Create a (non-draft) message via MIME content (like APPEND in IMAP)
We should be able to post MIME email content to create a new message (that isn’t a draft). Just to allow copying an email coming from another email account, which is a basic feature of any email client. In IMAP parlance, this is the APPEND command. It’s currently impossible to support this functionality when building an email client that uses the Microsoft Graph API.

Enable Quarantine through Graph API
Recently, ZAP (Zero Hour Autopurge) quarantine was announced, allowing ZAP to move messages entirely out of the user's mailbox into the administrative quarantine. This capability should be rolled out to Graph, allowing security partners to take advantage of similar capabilities - ultimately making mailboxes safer for all users.

Implement OData Extension for Data Aggregation Version 4.0
These aggregate functions would be very useful. For instance grouping messages by conversation id to retrieve a list of the latest message per conversation.

Get Exchange Online metadata (especially Exchange Mailbox Guid) via Microsoft Graph
I would like to get all metadata of a users mailbox (especially the Exchange Mailbox Guid). There is currently neither a way to get the Exchange Mailbox Guid of a user by using Microsoft Graph, nor to get a user by posting the Exchange Mailbox Guid to Microsoft Graph.

Permissions Gap: "Send" as draft
We have a service application that generates and sends email within an organization on behalf of users.
It has Mail.Send. It does NOT have Mail.ReadWrite on purpose. This allows us to send email and save a copy into their sent folder, but does not allow us to arbitrarily read the user's email (and other potentially problematic/dangerous access). This is inline with the principle of least privilege.
We want to give the users the option of reviewing the generated email from within Outlook and sending it only after review. Outlook already supports this via Drafts.
Unfortunately you only have two permission…

Allow internet message headers that are not prefixed with X-
The /v1.0/me/sendMail endpoint allows the user to specify custom internet message headers, but requires that each header begin with “X-“ or “x-“. Please relax this requirement so that we can add other common headers like “List-Unsubscribe” and "List-Unsubscribe-Post".

Teams Chat log
Getting mail logs at /me/messages includes Teams chats, but previously Teams chats contained characters that could be identified as "IM" in the Subject.
Currently, it is set as blank, and it can not be identified as mail log or chat.
I want you to be able to identify chat logs.10 votes -
Adding email alias from Graph API
There is no way the email alias to be added to an account programatically via Graph API. Updating the otherMails object in the /users API does not change the properties and seems to be read-only.
