      Hey ... that works!

      Awesome.

      This was a half rant/half "Can ML fix this" thread.

      Great ... so what's next? Maybe we will fix all OWA issues!

            Works fine.

            The desktop version is a little more elegant, but all-in-all it gets the job done.

              What does Evernote do better than OneNote? OneNote is now free.

                I was already using Evernote and have just stuck with it.

                Same reason I don't look at new TVs, I don't want to buy one.

                  Though there are a ton of articles comparing the two. In fact, one just showed up in my Facebook feed (from LifeHacker) today.

                    I looked through the rest of the Outlook add-ins, and they are PALTRY to put it nicely.

                      LOL not sure I see the parallel, but I do understand the stick-ition most of us get to a tool once we start using it. Don't want to be changing tools every few months, or even years.

                        Though I did read the article today, and it seemed to hint they thought Evernote was in trouble.

                          Somebody tell me how I can A) Set a custom Due Date on my Tasks, and I could ditch OWA... as a Bonus... Somebody show me how I can B) Show Tasks on the same page as my email, and I will drop Outbreak like a hot potato.

                            I found out today that you can have multiple things (e-mail, people, tasks) open on multiple tabs. So you could maybe space the windows in a way to replicate that.

                              Today's minor annoyance ... not being able to deal directly with .VCF attachments.

                                    I could do that... but that doesn't replicate Outlook (having all my info in one window. 🙂

                                      But what if you could get a new one for free? 😛

                                        Today's annoyance.

                                        What happened to NOTES? I see them, but they are an un-editable mail folder now?

                                          I ended up moving back to Outlook.

                                          My experiment with LibreOffice came to an end, so i decided to give Office365 a try.

                                          One thing I like is how Outlook 2016 does look very similar to OWA, and how changes you make in either places (such as favorite folders) carry over.

                                            Again I find Outlook so much easier to use than OWA or anything else. Does it have it's issues, well yeah, but so does everything else.
