hate the new outlook that is replacing win mail. any alternative that is similar to win mail that is simple and fast to load?
this is probably worse than the decision to remove group all at task bar and so many people refused to upgrade to win 11 because of that. what is Ms thinking?
Using New Outlook on Windows for professional communication and productivity

Not so simple. "Outlook for Windows vs Windows mail" doesn't fully encapsulate the issues in toto here.
?
Well there's folks that have used older versions of Outlook. Me: 2013!!! so I've watched all these notices/warnings/**** communications for geeze...years.
This threads main issue is not what you think.
So then we can get our Microsoft domain (hotmail/live/outlook/msn/???) address emails as usual? Even tho MS said ya gotta have the new Authorization thing in place? Does MS know this? Holy cow!

No, the issue is super simple and your response was selectively quoting me. I stated that office 2021 has an end of life in 2026 and office 2024 has an end of life in 2029. I can't possibly listed every single versions of office --- where your office 2013 had 10 years of support and ended in 2023.
Migrate before the discontinuation deadline. Migrate before they cut you off quote-unquote "suddenly" weeks/months/years after their "deadline". Some of the deadlines were moved multiple times because of mergers --- like verizon buying yahoo, then verizon selling yahoo, then yahoo merging with aol.
The issue is you don't want even a day of email downtime because by the time you actually faced the problem, nobody in this forum will remember these super old softwares to help you.
I have had Windows Live mail for 30 years. Today it will not send or - Microsoft Community
The issue isn't I want to play windows xp's minesweeper --- and if it doesn't work, that's no big deal because it's only a silly time sucking game. Unless your email is not important to you.
I see nothing wrong with having more than one e-Mail. Makes perfect sense to me.
Two more issues with the new Outlook; 1) why does it take so long to open an e-Mail and 2) why are "Sent" e-Mails in thte "Sent" folder labeled "Draft" along with another in the "Draft" folder? It makes no sense!
