Site MailboxWhen two world-class services come together, you get the benefit of both worlds. Combine SharePoint Online's document management strengths with Exchange Online's powerful email solutions and you get Site Mailboxes - powerful project-based "inboxes" that help teams organize project-related content and email into a single view, while everything is preserved in its original location as documents in SharePoint Online and email in Exchange Online.

the right person or document before investing time "searching beyond the search results." Users can move their cursor over a search result, and with on-hover, they can get a deep, rich look into the item without opening it.
