Dear MS, If you wish to replace an application (developed over 20+ years) then make it functionally equivalent.

Until then don't bother with trying to push the <removed> that is the new Outlook onto people to test.

    same here, why would i want to open a browser to use my tasks which previously displayed in a box within outlook. Also i use notes and new outlook makes them a useless folder that can only sort by date. Absolute garbage, here is a tip, when upgrading don't take stuff away, make it more seamless and usefull, ToDo function being browser based when we specifically want to use an app is a fantastic way to push your customers away.

    Agree - I absolutely hate it. I don't mind the new Teams but the new Outlook - how could you make it worse than before? 🤦‍♀️

    Used to be able to sort emails by "From" and delete all at the summary level. Yes, unsubscribing is the primary objective, but sometimes you get put onto email lists and want to clean your inbox out quickly. Anyone have a suggestion?

    • Also, losing Signatures was bad and having to recreate them for each email account is even worse.
    • Still have not figured out how to get me local .PST files to appear
    • Can't get to my iCloud contacts from a different service provider email

    How do we go back to the old version? There used to be a tab to goggle back to the old version.

    Agree with everyone here. It is pure garbage. Not sure if the product team knows anything about product development or it is just a bunch of programmers that decide. In any case, seems like no user feed back or input is every considered. I tried it for a week and found it to be a total waste of time. Reverting back to the old one. But have also installed emclient which is so much better. will likely remove outlook.
