Ten years ago I would not have said this, but Outlook is really pretty solid. Pretty fast, uses hardly any RAM, excellent Calendar integration (big deal for me), extremely flexible account setup.
I swear half of the clients on the market turn out to support only a small list of authentication methods, or don't let you specify port!
It is of course overkill though if you have one email account and only process a couple emails a day.
- juststeve 8y agoSorry, but Outlook 2016 is broken compared to 2013. I am forced to use it at work with exchage, and it has weird bugs that simply did not exist in the 2013 version. i still dont think it supports the iCalendar/calDAV standard either.
- Karunamon 8y agoThey support it, but in a very strange and broken way (lots of MS-specific fields with poor documentation). IIRC from my time trying to do appointment sending from line of business app, if you send someone an ICS attachment with the right MIME type, Outlook treats it as a regular appointment request.
- juststeve 8y ago> lots of MS-specific fields with poor documentation It's too easy to write a backhanded comment regarding this issue, but it's just really annoying.
