Honestly, The new Microsoft Outlook is garbage. No-one I talk to wants this. Did Microsoft do any market research at all before forcing this on customers?
I have switched to Em Client. Its better than Outlook and you can still have all your emails offline on your PC / Phone. I'll leave the Outlook installed just so it doesn't get confused with teams, etc but eM client is a far superior product. Its like the Classic Version of Outlook. So if you want the Classic feel of Outlook, go for eM Client and ditch the new Outlook.
The only way that Microsoft is going to learn that consumers are sick of thier "Upgrades" that often reduce productivity with extra menu steps, inability to work offline, etc is if we walk away from Outlook. Thats whatI've done.
So good job Microsoft. By forcing me to use a substandard product you spurred me onto finding an alternative. Thanks for the help you gave me by forcing a crap product on me. Otherwise I never would have looked or changed.
It seems Microsoft has lost its way and forgotten people are customers, not slaves.
