Obligitory “I have to use it for my job,” so let’s commiserate.

It’s the worst program in all of the Office Suite. MS wrote the goddamn OS and email client, but for some reason if I have two instances open for two different inboxes and try to pull one up on the taskbar, the wrong instance will pull up every single time without fail.

My runner-up complaint is how when I use the search bar, sometimes it’ll forget what I’m doing and when I hit enter it’ll open some email instead of executing the search.

Every update makes it worse, so what drives you crazy?

    Meeting requests tracking, oh my god. It’s a great feature but it’s got so many quirks.

    Once you decline a meeting, it’s gone for good in your calendar. If you accidentally declined, you need to ask for another invite. More commonly, plans changed and now you can’t attend when you could have because you forgot all about it.

    You can’t decline important meetings and still see them in your calendar, so people abuse ‘tentative’ as ‘I want to know when this meeting takes place but I won’t attend myself’

    Can’t organize a meeting and then don’t attend yourself. Impossible. Neither can you transfer ownership when you’re going on holiday for example, so people are stuck with meeting requests nobody can change

    Good luck getting a long series of meetings accepted by a meeting room. Every single instance must be available, that’s annoying but makes sense. You can cancel or move individual instances until the meeting room accepts it, but everyone gets spammed with invites.

    After you made all manual changes and the meeting room finally accepted it, if you make any changes to the series, everything is reset and the manual adjustments starts all over

    If you have to move one or two specific instances to a different room, you can’t! You can move in time or cancel an instance, but using the next available room is not possible. Both rooms will decline
