The responses from those who monitor Outlook is corporate cute. And expected.

But the new Outlook is so Very Terrible, that those of US who loved and have been a part of Hotmail since it's inception , might be lead to believe that the R&D dept. or hired developer Never used it in their lifetime? ??

This new Outlook is a lazy, pathetic designers attempt to.......do nothing!!

What did you make better??

NOTHING!

What did you screw up??

  • The easy one glance ability to either read " said email " or delete in up to  a 10 email selection at once.
  • The ability to easily place emails into folders.

Why explain it,..WE all know the new Outlook is a " Microsoft is done with your stupid account....." phase out.

Which in actuality is a shame from a business perspective.

Hotmail, may not be Facebook popular? 

But, there ARE many longterm users!!!!!!

Microsoft,  you are forcing Your Clientele to depart and sever ties with you.

I left the iPhone world long ago for Samsung / Android.

Why???

  • Freedom, and elimination of loved apps being manipulated.

Microsoft is creating the Same Problem.

IF, the business is really about money????

And Microsoft " thinks " it needs to change??

Why not do the smart thing.........

Ask your client base what WE like, and what WE think you do well. Then work from there.

But this new Outlook??? Sorry but, IT SUCKS!

    gmails easier than gmx (mail dot com). you dont have to keep logging in and the fab thing bout gmail too is, they dont show you whats in other email you CHOOSE to view that folder, and..its fast, AND...mail dot com logs you out everytime you close the tab or the computer down. tbh I find that not great but useful as spare email addys. Gmail though is far superior , by far the best . Plus multi log Ins, the one thing Hotmail never (or outlook) gave us. Yet is so damn needed., it's not rocket science yet we have to log in and out of every Outlook addy one by one...drives us all nuts. 

    gmail is crap

    I'm so absolutely frustrated with whatever changes Microsoft has done. Seems like a bunch of dummies making the decisions. My ipad wont sync up anymore, I need to use 3 different devices just to get my emails out. Then whats up with all the draft saving??!! I go to my sent folder and emails are just disappearing without me deleting them.... its chaos I HATE IT!!! Get your **** together Microsoft, Ive been using Hotmail now for 20 years and this is the most horrible version ever!!! Things supposed to advance and help us out, not make us angry and frustrated with your service.  FIX THE IPAD SYNC at least!!!!

    Simply kiss hotmail / Outlook / goodbye as I have done, but slowly! Go to gmx.com and set up a free email. Awesome program, wonderful crisp platform, ability to create folders, great contact list option, EASY to navigate, and also set up auto forwarding etc.
