That’s all.

EDIT: Thank you all for detailing your experience with, and hatred for, this miserable product. Your display of solidarity is inspiring. Now, say it with me:

Fuck Microsoft

Ah so your issue is, let me see here... Ah, actually using Outlook like a normal user.

I've tried switching to Thunderbird myself but it doesn't support Office 365 without a third party service. So I feel stuck with Outlook.

Ha, right? I'm keeping my fingers crossed there is some executive at MS raging and it will get resolved before they force everyone off the legacy version. Surely there are people inside their organization with tons more traffic than I see.

There's probably a microsoft engineer out there somewhere sitting in a cubical who has the solution already written and tested and they just can't figure out how to send it to their boss. They've tried outlook, teams, github, skype, and even one drive but they're all so broken that it may just be faster to print the code out and mail it.
