Outlook has been falling apart at the seams for a while now. But I cannot find a email client that supports multiple exchange servers and parses calendar invites in a way that's compatible with Teams. I'm the first to jeet Outlook if Thunderbird will do this but I'm also open to suggestions here.

I needed to send categorized and annotated batch of pictures (150MB) to a client, and for some reason I decided to drop the pics into excel sheet (allowing me to nicely support them with data etc). The client complained that they use web version of office 360, and that version doesnt allow to open excel files bigger than 100MB. I cant even.

#17Break them up. We need revised antitrust laws.
I think yes, and it really boils down to role separation. For everything.
An example being cable companies. They should have no capability to own TV stations, media creators, news companies, the list goes on. Backbone is backbone, be it an internet connection, or a TV/video feed.
Back to Microsoft you can make an OS, or you can make apps, but not both. An OS being a 'backbone'.
Applies to Google. "Search" vs "Ads". Backbone versus 'stuff on top'.
Really, sadly, there are cases where co-mingled stuff makes perfect sense. But bad actors are why we can't have nice things.
I wonder, there have always been jokes about how the world would be a paradise without lawyers, but would that be more MBAs in the 21st? Whether cars, or computers, or even the ladder I recently bought that is junk, it really all comes down to MBAs.
Engineers input "that's not acceptable quality", and MBAs just tromp all over that.
MBAs, the "we can't have nice things" people.

#18They've recently renamed Outlook to Outlook (classic). So you can see which way the wind is blowing on this. Outlook (new) is still missing tons of big features and the UI sucks.

It is a losing proposition to try to deal with compatibility between different MS products. Especially moving SaaS targets you can't control.

#20WinoMail is a good replacement for the Mail app, in case anyone is using it and is being shoved to using the Outlook App
