When has a UWP app ever had more features than the Forms app it replaced? I'd love to know. Windows Mail doesn't even properly support attachments let alone do even a quarter of what Outlook does.
- sp332 9y agoI just checked and I didn't have any trouble sending attachments using the Mail app. I used a different interface to search my inbox for attachments, then checked them in the Mail app and they all seem to be fine.
- Nexxxeh 9y agoDoes it handle winmail.dat attachments? I genuinely don't know.
- sp332 9y agoNo, at least after being forwarded from gmail, it shows up as winmail.dat and the message body is in plain text, not rich text.
- roryisok 9y agoYeah, try again in a few weeks. Once the mails reach a certain age they lose attachments. Microsoft's recommended fix is to move the mails to another folder which will make the attachments reappear
- Nexxxeh 9y agoDo you mean Outlook or Outlook Express? The Windows Mail app is the crappy successor to Outlook Express, and Windows Live Mail. They were free (as in beer) and either bundled with the OS or in a free productivity pack. Outlook is a completely separate beast, usually acquired as part of Microsoft Office or with a premium Exchange-based email service.
