This is weird because it's essentially the same app. And also these settings are on a separate dialog box so they aren't cluttering the main UI. In fact the dialog box is the same size as the old one, just now with lots of empty space.
In another example, the Block Sender option is now missing. This is an essential feature for any business user who is over spammed like myself. Any unsolicited sender goes straight on the block list and reporting as junk is not as effective as the are typically not 'junk' messages. They're from real account managers who didn't bother reading my LinkedIn profile so they're pestering me with crap I have nothing to do with.
These issues really need to be addressed for this to be a real alternative.
Please support On-Prem exchange.
If you’re using Outlook for Mac, the chances are incredibly high you use Exchange. It’s boggles my mind On-Prem exchange isn’t support :(
The Teams-like top search bar and the "New Outlook" toggle switch at the top suggest the latter - it would not be easy to implement such a toggle in a native app but trivial in a Teams-like Electron app.
What I find difficult is this strange blend of mixing file documents with online versions. And how to perform editing content for those assets.
I know Microsoft has been doing a lot of work on React Native support for macOS and Windows, but I had no idea it was far enough along that they were actually using it for 'real' applications at this point.
