I’m on windows 11, and I use the stock mail client which is great for what I need, I have 4 different email addresses on it and it’s simple and easy to use. Microsoft is in the business of harassing its paying customers so now every time I launch the stock mail app, windows will unpin it from my taskbar, install New Outlook, and then pin it to my taskbar. All of this happens without my permission and I have uninstalled New Outlook probably 50 times now. I don’t want to use New Outlook, it’s ugly, it has ads, and the team behind Outlook clearly all share a single cubicle and have never had to send an email in their lives. Any advice ? This is the sort of degeneration that gets swept under the rug in light of even larger scale degeneration ( The LLM spyware call back garbage )
