Thats gross. Just no. Use thunderbird or some other FOSS email client, at least outlook is somewhat limited with its spyware BS when you get mail through IMAP
Im tired of telling windows people something they already know. Its your choice to use a completely corporate cucked operating system for your personal computing, you don't get to clutch pearls and act suprised over it being complete spyware, or whenever microsoft decides it wants to erode your user experience just a little bit more because they can.
I tried using thunderbird for work MS email, but TB seem to be in the blacklist of my company (a professional school btw).
It popped me to ask for one time permission from the administrators and I did. They answered me 'TB is not YET trustable by them'. The incident is still 'in progress' after 10 months.
Then I found Ao. Pure gold.
Wouldn't that be Au? 🤣
But seriously, what is Ao ? I search but get AOL results only.
Anarchy Online. As an MMO it's a bit dated, but it does have a mail system.

I mainly use FairMail on my phone. It's got features that attempt to remove tracking from received emails, including blocking suspected tracking images from loading.
