No shit. There's a reason they are killing the nice and simple Windows Mail app; it allows you to sync with your email without Microsoft servers between.

Also, the biggest issue for me is the UX. I use outlook for my work email and like to separate my work and personal life, so soon I just won't have an app for my personal email on my PC.

If anyone knows of a similar windows mail app with good touch support and without such a traditional mouse designed UI, please share it.

The new thunderbird UI looked neat and modern.

They're still working out some kinks, but yes, the new UI of Thunderbird 115+ is pretty good.

Thunderbird has a new UI?

I'm on 115 and i dont notice anything different from how its always been.. (This isnt some joke, or insult, or anything. I genuinely don't notice anything different?)

If you update from a previous version then it configures itself to be similar to the old UI. If you do a clean install it looks very different.

fresh install on a fresh OS install.

Weird

Isn't that more of a replacement for Outlook? It doesn't look designed around touch like the windows mail app.

[-] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 10 months ago

Outlook in Office (365) is the actual Outlook.

This is like the Lite Edition.

Huh? Okay, well I don't want either of those. I want a light touch first mail app. If it is like any version of Outlook for PC, I'm not interested as it doesn't meet what I originally asked for.
