Hello Lemmy, I would like to know how do you all read email.
- What email clients (or web UI) do you use? And on what platform?
- What is something you don’t like from the client?
- What is something you like from the client?
- What is something you don’t like from the email service?
- What is something you like from the email service?.
- Is there a feature you would like your client implemented?
- Do you have any particular method or workflow of going through and extensive inbox?
If you have any other comment it would be appreciated as well.
On my computer I use the web interface and on my phone I use Thunderbird. One thing I do is to delete or archive any message that does not need any action, and it has been a blessing, my emails are so much easier to go through.
That’s all, thank you in advance.
I use Outlook - I have an M365 account. Actually, I have several, since I have accounts for all of my clients and they all use M365.
New Outlook is terrible. It is like Microsoft asked themselves, is there a way to remove the most useful parts while poorly trying to mimic Google with a cartoon flair? And they were able to achieve this lofty goal.
I use the old Outlook as a result and have figured it out well enough. I have several accounts in the app, which is nice. The search is terrible, but can be improved if you ask Copilot for search formulas. I can setup .oft templates so others can send mails I write. I can easily set up branded colors and fonts. So it is fine.
Androids version of Outlook is shameful, but I have to use it.
In terms of email management. I get somewhere between 75 and 150 each day, so I just tackle them as they come in. It I can’t take action right away, I mark it unread so I come back to it later.
