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?

    Sorry for my harsh comment but, the problem here is not to sell the app or make it sound nice, it's about the old UI was looking great and was not much ad in there, Microsoft needs to stop adding ads in their app, Microsoft is not google or any kid of random companies Microsoft is low developed right now for my opinion, what I have to say is New Outlook is look great not gonna lie but its glitchy and functions is weird and when I used personally it was a pain, I moved myself on ProtonMail because they not stalk my emails as Microsoft and add ''AI'' feature in my inbox to move or re-order my things what I controlled myself not a company that declares ''biggest company'' just because made Windows, I'm sorry for my harsh comment, but facts are facts and not everyone want ''AI'' in their life, our life and the time is not yet ready for ''AI'' and things like that, privacy needs to be 1# not to know my data is sold on darkweeb and losing all my information because of a big company that say ''It's for future'' as Windows 11, copilot, recall, new outlook and other services that nobody ask for something like that, if Microsoft want to be apple why not make it and hear the hate from the entire globe.

    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.

    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.

    BRILLIANT!!!! Executing as we speak!!

    Thanks for the update!!

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

    Solved

    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.

    I hope this helps anyone at the end of their rope like I was, Good luck and enjoy while you can!!
