When I use Outlook on the Web (OWA), and then hover with my mouse over a message, the following Quick Action icons become visible;

• Delete
• Mark as Read/Unread
• Flag
• Pin

I sometimes have a bit of a “trigger finger” and worry that I might hit the Delete icon by mistake. Also, as Outlook on the Desktop doesn’t support the Pin feature, I don’t use that either.

Can I somehow disable some of these Quick Action icons and assign other commands to them like Archive or Move?
