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

we never asked for this new outlook and never wanted it to replace the windows mail which for a majority of users ticked all the right boxes.

The admission that this new outlook is 'under development' speaks volumes, it was not ready for release but Microsoft replaced a perfectly fine mail app with this complete utter trash.

The reply from GinikalD completely missed the point of your question :

Please try the following options and see if the issue gets resolved:

1. Reduce the Size of Your Mailbox. Large mailboxes can slow down Outlook. Try archiving old emails.

so it's your mail that is the problem??? I don't think so!

2. Ensure that you have a strong and stable network connection.

So it's your network connection that is the problem ????? again I do not think so!

3. You might have to disable some add-ins that you don't use regularly as some can slow down Outlook.

So now you have to disable add-ins as Outlook cannot process with them on????? come on be serious!!!

4. Repair Outlook Profile. A corrupted profile can cause slow loading, so consider repairing and the Outlook app on your desktop.

So now it's actually your installation of outlook that causes the problem????

When will these so-called experts except that we are not idiots, I've been working with computer programs since the seventies and always smile when the 'it must be your fault as our coding is perfect' card is played, it's not any of those issues, the issue is we didn't want this new outlook but Microsoft has determined that like it or not you will have it even if it is rubbish it is what we say you need to use and the ads give us much needed revenue ( did I type that?)

Releasing an app that is incapable of transferring contacts from a working windows mail is inexcusable, forcing users to be spammed with ads unless they are prepared to buy out is despicable.

Being unable to select your own backgrounds to allow individuals to customise their page is arrogance of the highest order.

It really doesn't matter which alternate mail app you use as any available are miles better than this 'new' outlook but blind to any feedback Microsoft will continue to ignore the very people who pay their wages, simply put restore Windows mail and stop forcing users who do not need outlook to have to put up with an inferior option because they will find a non-microsoft alternative.

My thoughts same. Me too, Windows 10 is last and have been evaluating replacement for it in Linux distros.

I tried Debian 12 Live on my computers (laptop Lenovo yoga 380) and fully compatible, even the touchscreen based on Wacom. It even flips as expected. Alla natively without installing any drivers.

Try different distros live but if I were you I would stick on Debian or Fedora base.

The best thing MS could do with the new Outlook is can it. It is totally useless. Can't move emails from multiple acounts to a single archive. Spam blocker doesn't work. to do and calendar no longer work on same screen.

Kill the new outlook and never casy a new UNFINISHED, DEBUGGED, FAULTY piece of **** like this on the public again (as if microsoft cares except for anything but out money.)

Moving to another email client.

Hope everyone noticed almost every reply from MS entails "yes it has bugs but we're working on it"? MS, fix it first then offer it to us.

Dislike as well and now they want me to pay a monthly subscription to remove ads. Removing and going to try Mozilla and others.
