  • I am willing to forget pretty much any fault on Outlook when I compare it with the absolute dogshit product that is New Outlook.

    Click on a Toast and it opens the email… in the background, never in the foreground.

    Have anything other than Email selected (calendar, for example) and it doesn’t display the New Email notification on the tile, so if you didn’t see the toast and have anything other then Outlook open in the foreground, you don’t know you’ve got new email until you physically go back to Outlook and click on the Email button.

    Want to send a spreadsheet as an email attachment from within Excel? The option is there, but it doesn’t work any more (and the same for any other native “send via email” option in your OS out applications).

    Want to send a document as an attachment? You have to open a new email, then drag the document into the correct half of the email, because if you have it too far to the left, Outlook will upload it into OneDrive and put a link to it in the email.

    I could go on, but fuck me, it’s absolutely disgusting how much this breaks any previous workflow you may have had for doing email quickly and efficiently…
