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.

    I Just found a new email from MS allowing me to download and install the old Outlook version for 11 users. I did and it works, MS must be listening.

    @Ellis1400 - I know it doesn't help with everything but be sure to check out forums<dot>slipstick<dot>com  an OL User forum help site run by Diane Poremsky a 30 year MS Professional who's helped probably millions of OL users

    Welcome to #EmailHell and Good luck.

    Ken - You shouldn't have to do so since you are a customer but when it comes to help with MS products like OL, Excel, Word you'll get better assistance at a non-MS owned forum like the below which I've found in the past to be an excellent place for help with OL. It's run by a really smart lady named Diane Poremsky who is an OL expert. I can't guarantee they can help you but even if not it's an excellent resource. Good luck.

    Unfortunately non-corporate/business sales are an afterthought to Microsoft so you can expect less then expected customer service. The reason they still have individual sales is so to prevent employees from purchasing (for personal use) some alterative (say from Apple) that wit h enough doing that and bragging about how better a product it is at work it could result in companies cancelling office365 for some competitor. MS will feign care for individual sales but it's just drama. The reason they are getting away with this New OL **** is because the decision makers at companies, the ones who decide if they renew/purchase Office 365, often have secretaries/others handle the email so they don't experience the pain the rest of the employees do and as long as Microsoft keeps those decision makers happy they couldn't care less about the rest of the users.
