A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The new Outlook looks like a standalone app version of OWA. They’re probably doing that to unify code bases but it’s seriously lacking some features that Outlook had.

  • Can’t open PST files
  • Sort was borked
  • Couldn’t set caching options for Exchange

And that’s just a few I remember. Though it’s been a good year since I’ve played with it last.

I tried the "New Outlook" a few months ago. There was no longer a Save As option for attachments. All attachments were downloaded to the default downloads directory.

I immediately uninstalled and didn't look back.

I think it tries to force you to save Office documents to SharePoint/OneDrive as well....
