   Hello Mike!   
      
    MP> Each morning, I receive at least one message from a   
    MP> service called Microsoft Viva.  Apparently Outlook looks   
    MP> through my calendar for that day and then tries to match   
    MP> up meetings with emails I have received, and this message   
    MP> tells me what it has found.  Also, once a week, I will get   
    MP> a second email that usually includes some brief facts   
    MP> about how long it takes me to answer emails, on average,   
    MP> and additional info about the days I have the most   
    MP> meetings, etc.   
      
   OMG, they just activated all those meeting/email matchings,     
   brief facts, and stats?   
      
   Something like that would make me furious.   
      
      
      
    MP> At the bottom, there is a link where I can opt out.   
      
    MP> Right under that is a note that says the following:   
      
    MP> For people in Canada:   
    MP> This is a mandatory service communication.   
      
   THAT is certainly strange for disallowing Canadian users to opt     
   out.   I'd simply opt out of such MS product!   
      
   I use MS Outlook 2007 (local to my PC).  It is quite good     
   enuff, even if it is considered 15 yrs old.   
      
      
    MP> I am curious as to why, if I were in Canada, these   
    MP> messages from Microsoft are mandatory?  I am assuming   
    MP> there is some law behind it.  I thought it was an odd   
    MP> message.  :)   
      
   Maybe you can find more about that matter elsewhere, but since     
   I'm not a 365 or cloud Outlook user, I am not affected.
