You can now get a male-voiced Cortana to read out your Outlook inbox

You've got mail: With the help of Cortana, Outlook app users will be able to work through their inbox while driving a car. — Microsoft/dpa

Read me my emails and calendar appointments: Cortana has just learned a big new skill as part of its male-voiced debut on the Outlook email app.

The app will now let you use voice commands to skip, archive and tag emails for later, all hands free, Microsoft says. This means you can work your way through your inbox even when you're sitting behind the wheel of a car.
