My current pet peeve is Email servers (MS Office) configured to only allow connections from outlook. I'd be happy to add an account to Aquamail but they won't let me. So no work emails on my phone or personal laptop.

Ditto, but this is actually a bonus for me.

"Didn't you see my email and message last evening?"

"Not until I got in today, because it came after I had logged off and I can't see that stuff on my personal phone because, you know, IT policy."

It's a trade off because it's handy when you're at an appointment.
