Jumped on my own name email address on Outlook when they relaunched the new look and I have to save I love it. I find it much easier on the eyes and in the UX department than Gmail.

Gmail to me feels stale and over encumbered by labels and buttons and checkboxes.

There are some thing about Outlook that do annoy me, mainly how it doesn't want to save my password in the login form and automatically fill it in. It's ridiculous. I also dislike having to type my email address instead of just the username. `foo@outlook.com` it gets tiring.

I don't regret switching! :)



Bookmarklet to force firefox to remember any password, even on pages that have autocomplete=off (like outlook.com)

https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_...

Drag that to your bookmarks toolbar and run it once before submitting the form on the website you want to remember passwords on.


Among other things, I like push email. Gmail doesn't do that.


the sweep feature in particular is very well done.
