The year is 2026. The system requirements for Windows 12, shutting out 98% of the all current PCs in use, are set in place to manage Windows 12’s multiple new Outlook versions.

Finally those Y2K consultants will get another project

They finally accepted the web as the platform after all these years...

Edge WebView2

I'm like 90% sure this requires edge to be installed, even though the EU mandated that they make edge uninstallable. So that might be their game here.

They don’t even use the windows built in notification system… baffles me every time.

Sounds like Google

Also it forwards your SMPT/IMAP data to Microsoft without your consent.

I tried the "New Outlook" a few months ago. There was no longer a Save As option for attachments. All attachments were downloaded to the default downloads directory.

I immediately uninstalled and didn't look back.

they're just trying to con people into using the new data harvesting mail app by calling it 'outlook'

My company moved from using Gmail to Outlook and I saw it as an opportunity to migrate to Thunderbird/K9-Mail. Best decision I made, it was a bit rough at the beggining because it needed some extension to Sync contacts but it works much faster than the shitty Outlook app/web.

The big one for me is drag/drop, copy/paste, saving of emails and attachments between Outlook and the rest of Windows/Office is completely borked.

I have to keep both versions open at work to keep from going completely insane.

(New) disabled all my inbox rules and since you can't create new rules in the OWA irom what I could see, there was basically no management. Glad I moved my personal stuff to Proton before they kill the standard Outlook app entirely

It is still super slow and feels limited compared to the old one.

Rules as example are really bad since it allows only a single action of given type. So to label a mail with different labels I need a rule per label instead of a single one in the previous Outlook version.

Tasks are missing completely not to speak of all of the advanced task management functions of old outlook.

This guy Microsofts

This is completely wrong. The bottom left one should be in all caps

Oh yeah, that’s a totally legit word. Not like it’s a nonsense sound. New. New. New.

New.

The office versions are so confusing and frustrating. I just wanna use the goddamn desktop program and not some web app.

It's funny because your new (commercial) outlook and the new (general public) outlook subscribers get from MS is not fully identical.
M$ wanted me to upload my emails.

Yep that'd the "new" one.
Even for 365 subscribers.

What do you mean? Its easy!

Teams White and Purple=hotmail

Teams Purple and White=365 for business

Teams Lavender (new)=Electron App

Teams Mauve (with Knuckles)=Teams except you are talking exclusively to Copilot AI

Teams Royal Purple (360 Edition)= Used by the Kansas City Royals baseball team

Teams Sky-Blue and White (Me)=Skype for Business

Teams Periwinkle= Codename for Slack

The infuriating thing are the ‘do you want to switch back to old terms?’ messages. Like are you fucking serious what the fuck even is the point of that what the fuck are you even doing with these ‘new’ apps if you’re going to use the same pop ups in both directions basically.

Damn, I was used to work around shitty stuff on Teams. Are you telling me they're going to push another, different set of bugs on me now?

Same. but I couldn't set up my mfa protected work account in firebird
