So you "just want to view our emails and nothing else" do you fluffbundle? You want a free email account... but you don't want any adverts... just like a paid-for account... but without actually paying for it. How would that work? How do you think the
costs of providing Hotmail/Outlook accounts are funded? I don't think Microsoft are "missing" anything, it's just basic economics, things cost money to provide!
If you want an ad-free account pay for an upgrade to Ad-free Outlook.com. If you want to stick with the free version of Outlook, but your inbox is a bit cramped, consider buying a bigger screen. And for those people advocating Yahoo and Gmail over Outlook,
both those companies scan your emails (i.e. electronically read them) to build a profile they can sell to advertisers -
nasty.
