How can i resolve this?

Thanks!

    Thanks for the reminder about Spark! I gave that up because of lack of integration with Mac Calendar stuff, but maybe I'll give it another look!

    This is really sad but Outlook is not fulfilling the expectations of a mac user.

    No identity management

    No sync between devices

    No "send later"

    No answer from Microsoft and no roadmap...

    I cannot possibly work properly without these features, I'm going back to Spark mail and Apple mail :/

    It is absolutely ridiculous that we can't edit the names, and I look like an idiot sending emails with an email address as the name. Since there's been no response from Microsoft, and this issue continues after a year, I have abandoned Outlook and went back to Apple's Mail, which is less than perfect. I miss some of the Outlook features, but not enough to put up with this fatal flaw.
