Just like last week, we're hearing even more about Mango but this time it's coming from a more reliable source: Microsoft. Paul Bryan, Senior Director of Business Experience for the Windows Phone team (phew!), took to the Windows Phone Blog and published "Productivity takes a big step forward in Mango". This same information was presented during the TechEd 2011 keynote, so he detailed the new enterprise features coming in Mango for us.
Windows Phone's native email apps are getting a few refinements in Mango (above). First, email folders will now be pinnable to the Start page, though we're unsure if it is a Live Tile. Still, we've been waiting for that feature for a while now so it's great that it will soon be available. Another welcome improvement will be the added Conversation View in emails, which is something we know a lot more people than us have been waiting to see in action. You'll also notice a new Search button in the AppBar, which Bryan says is a new Server Search feature that will find emails that may no longer be synced on your phone. Finally, the last thing discussed was the Lync Mobile app (below), a Microsoft-built Lync solution that won't be native in the OS but will be offered in the Marketplace as a separate download.
That succulent Mango is just getting sweeter by the day. We're a little over a week away from Microsoft's public unveiling of Mango on May 24th, so stay tuned because the rumor mill is about to heat up!
Update: Winrumors just got their hands on a new video from TechEd showing off the new features. Jump past the break to get your fill of Mango-flavored business juice.
