But I like being able to track what still needs to be addressed by opening messages in separate windows. My insistence to use a desktop email client when web email has come so far over the years is probably a bit stubborn. But no, apparently driving Edge and Office 365 adoption are more important. You would think fixing basic functionality like this would be a priority. It does not recover to the previous state like other Windows apps. Oh, and by the way, when it crashes, all my open windows crash too. Windows Mail is unusable, which means Windows 10 doesn’t come with an email client. There are of course small features I would like to see added to Windows Mail, like being able to set formatted signatures (as opposed to just plain text), but that’s hardly a priority. That’s not a decision I should have to make. I end up debating whether to send the email hours late, or if it doesn’t make sense to send it anymore. It’s not even sitting in my outbox - it’s just a fucking draft. With Windows Mail, countless times I have wondered why I never got heard back to a specific reply, only to discover hours later, and completely by accident, that the message is still a draft. Any normal email client will send the message despite the app not being the active window. Multiple times a week, I open an email, hit reply, type out a quick message, hit send, and alt-tab back to Chrome or Word. Windows Mail is also notorious for not sending emails. The other half of the time this happens, Windows Mail will crash altogether.Īpparently having one email open and trying to open another one that just came in is overwhelming for Windows Mail. If, however, you then click on said notification, Windows Mail will take you to the open email message, rather than the one that you just clicked on. If you have an email open and Windows Mail detects that a new email has hit your inbox, you’ll get a notification. Windows Mail has difficulty sending and receiving email. I like having all my emails available offline by default, I prefer managing emails in windows, and I like leaving emails open in a constant to-do list style.Īfter getting frustrated with Outlook 2017’s instabilities, I thought to myself - why not switch to Windows Mail? Surely a basic email client is enough to cover my needs. I have always preferred desktop email clients to web email.
