Microsoft is forcefully upgrading users to the new Outlook app for Windows before it imminently replaces Mail & Calendar apps to "become familiar...

MS does not need to push clients to try the new version, they jus need to read the existing comments by people who have already tried it.
The point is that there is no worse deaf than someone who does not want to hear…

i noticed, I spent way too much time (any time greater than 0 seconds) to revert the idiotic auto update on launch
 
This is a mess, I use full outlook for my email, I only used Calendar. Now I'm force switched, and it's forcing me to add an email account, my MS account is under my own domain, not outlook.com - so when I enter my MS account, it tries to add my POP email, which I don't want...

The same issue with the calendar tile since Windows 11 launch never being able to handle a non-outlook MS account domain

Now I can only access my calendar via the web. I guess it's time to switch to google calendar.
 
Thanks for letting us know. I use the proper Office apps but I fired up Mail just to switch to the new one and back again in order to send my feedback to them. I agree I think MS do ignore the majority of comments. I wonder if they'd pay attention if, say, 1 million people gave them feedback like the below, would they get it then?

"It's horrible! This isn't a native app - it's a website thrown in a Window... when you click the shortcuts to word\excel etc it just opens the browser.

Come on Microsoft, this is appalling, I expect so much better from you!

Massively disappointed with the laziness; you have the resources, you have the knowhow, you should have made a really excellent native Outlook app that everyone would be praising and love using. Instead you waste time and make yourselves look really bad by throwing this rubbish out there."
