It isn't really a new approach to [web]mail it is just a redesigned Hotmail that looks like Office 2013 and works better with touch devices.
Also I wish Microsoft would ditch the whole folder approach to mail. Labels can work just like folders if you wish but are so much more flexible and just makes so much more sense IMHO.
- ljoshua 14y agoI agree, not a new approach, just a new coat of paint. Refreshing UI for sure, but their copy is a little overreaching.
- IanDrake 14y agoI'm pretty sure "categories" == "labels".
- ditoa 14y agoYeah the categories are labels however they still have the folder system as the primary way of sorting your mail. I would like the option to totally remove folders from the equation and just use labels.
- drivingmenuts 14y agoThe folder approach is handy for getting things out of the main inbox, though. Labels/tags/categories are useful for searching, but for wholesale organizing you can't beat the folder. Of course, I say that, but my current method uses the One Big Pile system and I delete year-before-last every January.
