What you think brehs, outlook sure is slow, what email client you use at HOME? I know at work Outlook is a little better.

I was about to switch to opera with that built in email client.

I can't really fukk with any other email client...been using outlook for over 10 years for both work and home use.

Tried Thunderbird cause I liked how it had addons like Firefox...but still couldn't fukk with outlook and switched back.


It honestly might just be because I've used outlook for so long, though.

I use Mailbird Pro as my main email client. No offense to anyone that uses it but Outlook is trash :camby:

I have both outlook 11 and outlook 16 on mac. and I have outlook 2013 on windows. of the three clients, I like outlook 13 best. also, with mac outlook, I really really hate how you can't take the rules you created in windows outlook and import them into the mac versions of outlook. and re-creating a bunch of rules to have my messages move to the folders I created is a major pain in the ass. especially cuz I had it working perfectly in windows.

outlook 13 is probably the best email client I have ever used. I love it. with mac, I find myself using the regular mail app mostly because of missing features from the windows version.

Outlook tend to be slow and it doesn't download alot of mail at once I think it stops at 20mb and then you have to click resend to download more.

Alot outlook is pretty heavy on ram usage.

It's still the most popular option but it's too confusing in the settings.

They removed opera mail from the Opera browser :snooze:

Guess I'll stick with it and chrome
