Headline: IT and sysadmins overwhelmingly feel New #Outlook for Windows is "hot garbage"
#Outlook complaint: I keep reporting and blocking emails from #Microsoft but they keep sending them.
@kuketzblog Nur blöd, dass die komplette Wirtschaft von #Windows und #Outlook abhängig ist.
#Evolution for #windows .... is that an actual thing?
Would like to have an alternative to #outlook that can handle #owa with #exchange right out of the box.
#Thunderbird cannot handle Exchange, you need a (paid) plugin 4 this.
Any tips?
@vxo @harmonycorrupted yeah.
mastodon.social is the #GMail / #YahooMail / #Outlook / #Hotmail of the #Fediverse:
#TroyHunt fell for a #phishing attack on his mailinglist members: https://www.troyhunt.com/a-sneaky-phish-just-grabbed-my-mailchimp-mailing-list/
Some of the ingredients: #Outlook and its habit of hiding important information from the user and missing #2FA which is phishing-resistant.
Use #FIDO2 with hardware tokens if possible (#Passkeys without FIDO2 HW tokens are NOT phishing-resistant due to the possibility of being able to trick users with credential transfers: https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.07380) and avoid Outlook (or #Microsoft) whenever possible.
Further learning: it could happen to the best of us! Don't be ashamed, try to minimize risks and be open about your mistakes.
Note: any 2FA is better than no 2FA at all.
#Overlook is the name of the hotel featured in #TheShining. The Micrisoft product is #Outlook. It is easy to get them confused.

Outlook greeted me with a new AI feature this morning, Copilot is now integrated into the email client!
I'm expecting even more bland looking, impersonal emails from this. Microsoft, please prove me wrong!

Most of you are probably asking how I am feeling after yesterday.
Unsure if it was via food or air, but the stomach bug I picked up in Indianapolis on Wednesday has totally kicked my arse.
Yesterday I really did not want to eat anything, nor even drink water etc. I was absolutely drained and could hardly keep awake.
So, today after a LOT of sleep I am somewhat improved. Feeling about 40%, mostly awake, and more functional.
As you can imagine I was not able to work at all yesterday, and I hope to do so today, from home.
There are 164 emails in my #FoodBank #Outlook #Inbox that need organising, 104 unread, and I plan to do so this morning.
As I reported, my ordered #PineTab2 was delivered yesterday, and it is absolutely fantastic. The build quality is way superior to what I hoped for.
For a 10.1" tablet, 8GB RAM, 128GB HD, and keyboard I paid $242.99 delivered.
It runs Danctnix, which is KDE Plasma 6 compiled for ARM.
Please ask me questions about this excellent device.
Today is Arianna's last work day of PTO.
It's going to a whole lot warmer, and many of the Spring trees are starting to bloom, so she will be going into photography mode.
Time to dive into work mode as I listen to The Cybertronic Spree concert at The Echo, Los Angeles.
The 80s style beat is certainly helping keep me awake.

Microsoft kämpft mit Problemen beim Outlook-Wechsel. Der Button zum Zurückwechseln auf das klassische #Outlook führt zum Programmabsturz. Alternativen sind vorhanden, aber die Frustration wächst. #Microsoft https://winfuture.de/news,149593.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
