I access hotmail email accounts from a MacbookAir laptop using the Apple email app. Also access from an iPhone 11.
It seems legit. Can anyone confirm if it is?
Using older versions of Outlook for Mac in business environments

Platform = PC, Mac, Android phone, and/or iPhone. What icon do you click to get email (please post a screen shot of it)? Is your email service provided by Outlook.com or Live mail or Hotmail?
I have a desktop Mac, but an older OS that won't support the new Outlook download. Could you clarify the above statement about alternate ways to access email? Meaning, instead of the mail icon that came with my computer, can I go to a web browser to find Outlook.com, sign into my Microsoft account, and access email that way? Thank you for any help you can offer.

Of course. Just use Safari browser to access your mailbox.
Yes, pretty much any current browser that will install and run on your version of MacOS should work just fine.
