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.

    We shouldn't have to root about in online help sites in order to use a programme that was highly developed and effective.

    Nowadays there are plenty of alternatives. MS might regret this.

    EVEN Microsoft's own AI is saying that the new Outlook is bad, so bad that in Windows 11 you;re better off using the OS's Mail & Calendar apps then use the new Outlook,

    For the love of God Microsoft when are you going to pull your head out of your butt about this new OL trash?

    I've tried it a few times and it's just bad. My biggest gripe is that when you have multiple addresses added, they are not automatically expanded on the left when you open the program. There is no indicator that there is mail, so you have to manually open each one.

    I absolutely guarantee I will not be putting up with that. I'll switch to Thunderbird, or just use webmail. Or just stop email altogether on my PC and use my phone.
