hate the new outlook that is replacing win mail. any alternative that is similar to win mail that is simple and fast to load?

They didn't listen. Despite the feedback, they pushed it on us anyway.
Now there's ads in my e-mails and my inbox; oh, and shocking nobody, $2 monthly fee to go ad-free.
From Microsoft, as if they <removed> need ad revenue or a subscription service. The greedy corporate rats.

BRILLIANT!!!! Executing as we speak!!

Thanks for the update!!

This is from the reddit dialog box for others to follow....

No more threats about them eventually forcing you to use the new (inferior) version either.

• Make sure you have automatic app updates turned off in the Microsoft Store (Open App Store and change the Setting)
• Copy this link: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9wzdncrfhvqm?hl=en
• Go to: https://store.rg-adguard.net/
• Select the Retail ring, (Paste above link in to the box for the URL Link, You will have a bunch ads on this page you need to downsize so you can see the list of links below)
• When generated, select microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_16005.14326.21422.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.appxbundle. (I copied the link and pasted in to a new page to start the download. Chrome blocked it initially but I click on "Download Insecure" and Reinstalled and then Launched it.)
• Select Reinstall and confirm. (Once Mail opens you will have to change your setting for Mail to your desired configuration again.)

It may require you to open and close the app a couple of times before the button goes away once and for all.

If the link didn't work, copy and paste it into another browser.

Got the popup blocker prompt, took me 10 minutes to install an old version and turn off MS store updates. Still works, not sure I even need my batch solution anymore.

Check Wino Mail. it is the closest thing I can find to Windows Mail, it is nearly a clone.

Downside is it only support 3 mail boxes then you have to pay.

It worked for two (2) days only. Nevertheless, I did enjoy it
