- bombcar 3y agoFrom my experience it is Excel first, PowerPoint second, followed by Outlook and, last, Word. The order varies depending on what you do, each can become absolutely critical.
- jasonjayr 3y agoOh boy. Outlook users are in for a surprise with "New Outlook" is forced on them in the near future. Microsoft has been pushing and warning about this change for some time ....
- Semaphor 3y agoI use outlook for work mails and tried new outlook for a short while. It’s like an alpha version, it’s not even close to feature parity, a pure showcase for a new design. If it ever becomes the only version, I’m switching to thunderbird.
- PawgerZ 3y agoI used the default Mail Microsoft Store app for the past 2 years at work. The past 6 months, it's been telling me to move to Outlook desktop app. A couple weeks ago, it wouldn't allow me to use the Microsoft Store app anymore, so I installed the desktop version, tried to login, and got an error message that my account would only work on the webapp. Set up Thunderbird on my work desktop that day, and haven't looked back. Wish I would have way sooner, to be honest.
- Semaphor 3y agoYou inspired me, decided to set up Thunderbird and give it a week or so to see how it feels ;)
- PawgerZ 3y agoHope it goes well!
- Semaphor 3y agoThanks, but I just switched back. Just far too bad performance (for my use case of ten-thousands of mails in subfolders), and as a bonus a spam filter that ignores actual spam, but marks real mails as spam consistently. The interface is far nicer than outlook, but the performance is just too annoying for me.
- coffeeling 3y agoWino Mail is native and nice.
- PawgerZ 3y agoOh, very cool. Thanks for sharing -- glad to know I have this option if I want to go back. Now that I have Thunderbird set up, I'll probably never use the UWP Mail and Calendar app or this Wino Mail app.
- smackeyacky 3y agoIf some kind soul wants to point to an email client that has a capability like Outlook rules I'm dying to know about it. I have a mate whose business is entirely based on a big set of Outlook rules to do processing and there doesn't seem to be any good alternative. Outlook online doesn't seem to have any rule capability and can't talk to 3rd party email servers.
- Ringz 3y agoYou don't need an e-mail program for this if you are ready to work with Imapfilter: https://github.com/lefcha/imapfilter https://github.com/lefcha/imapfilter
- smackeyacky 3y agoAwesome thank you will look into that
