The only thing I can muster in their defense is that Outlook search is garbage, and filtering in Excel to find relevant messages may have been marginally easier. But that's playing devil's advocate and going out on a limb.

It was probably in response to some manager saying it's not a good idea to keep documented agreements in email, so some genius thought putting those in an Excel and attaching to email was compliant with that idea.

lol, I'll buy the search argument I suppose, but the agreements would still be in the email though right? I dunno what to think 😆
