I agree with gmail now sluggish. At one time, 800ms! Today? Seconds.

I use it for personal and to search my body of pro emails forwarded to an account for that purpose.

Too bad about macOS mail.

I need to look at FastMail.

Outlook, like the rest of the Microsoft Office programs, is craptastic! It will do what you want. You will enjoy doing it less than you want, and it will generally remain worth it to do what you want.

Web only email is killer. I did that for many years.

The big thing with Outlook and exchange is business calendar integration. MS has a good solution. Forward to gmail and I get Android calendar copies for essentially free and low hassle. I do enough sales related work to justify Outlook.

I do not like Microsoft mobile apps much at all. On Android at least.

Edit: I fought with / against Outlook for years.

When I finally said, "fuck it" and used it for business, I found when I do not invest much, I do not risk much and have been happy ever since.

I just don't want to think about it all that much. The contents of those emails are what I want to think about and so that's where my focus is.
