New Outlook for Windows under test: here’s what the mail program has to offer

Microsoft ha estado trabajando en una nueva versión de Outlook para Windows, que se espera que se lance en los próximos meses. El nuevo Outlook está diseñado para ser más rápido, más moderno y más personalizable que el actual. En esta publicación de blog, veremos algunas de las características y mejoras que ofrecerá el nuevo Outlook.

One of the major changes in the new Outlook is the user interface, which has been redesigned to be more consistent with other Microsoft products, such as Office 365 and Windows 11. The new Outlook will have a simplified ribbon, a new command bar, a New sidebar and a new message list. The user interface will also adapt to different screen sizes and resolutions, and will support dark mode and high contrast mode.

Another change in the new Outlook is integration with Microsoft Teams, which will allow users to easily switch between e-mail and chat, join or schedule meetings, and share files and calendars. The new Outlook will also support voice commands, which will allow users to dictate emails, search for contacts, create tasks and more.

The new Outlook will also offer more customization options, such as themes, fonts, colors and layouts. Users will be able to customize their inbox and calendar according to their preferences and needs. The new Outlook will also have a new settings panel, which will make it easier to access and manage various options and functions.

The new Outlook will also have improved performance and reliability, thanks to the use of Microsoft Edge WebView2 technology, which will enable faster rendering of web content and better support for web standards. The new Outlook will also have enhanced security and privacy features, such as end-to-end encryption, phishing protection and data loss prevention.

The new Outlook for Windows is currently in testing with a limited number of users who are part of the Windows Insider Program. Microsoft plans to roll out the new Outlook to more users in the coming months and eventually replace the current Outlook with the new Outlook. The new Outlook will be compatible with Windows 10 and Windows 11 and will require an Office 365 subscription or a Microsoft 365 account.

Outlook for Windows: a new e-mail experience coming soon

Microsoft is working on a new version of its popular email program, Outlook, that will offer a consistent, modern interface across devices and platforms. The project, codenamed «One Outlook» or «Project Monarch,» aims to unify the Outlook experience across Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS and the web.

Outlook for Windows will be available as a preview for Windows experts in the coming months as an alternative to the current Windows Mail application. Microsoft expects to complete the project in late 2022 or early 2023 and eventually replace the Windows Mail application with Outlook for Windows.

Outlook for Windows will offer many features and benefits for users, such as:

– Faster, more responsive user interface, powered by web technologies

– Seamless integration with Microsoft 365 services such as Teams, OneDrive and Calendar

– A customizable and extensible platform, with support for plugins and themes.

– A simplified and streamlined configuration process, with automatic account detection and configuration.

– Consistent and familiar look and feel, regardless of device or platform

Outlook for Windows is part of Microsoft’s vision to create a single Outlook client that can run on any device and platform, and provide users with a best-in-class email experience. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project!
