I had a nice one today. I saved an email for archiving for all to see ( you know, as a .msg) and tried to open it. Windows asked if I would like to open it with Outlook (new). Sure, I thought, only to be greeted by the message "sorry, this function is not supported".
Why do you do this to me Microsoft?! Why?!
New Outlook is a web app in disguise and unlikely to full support local files like that. It doesn't even support .PST.
Microsoft doesn't want you managing email on the computer anymore, they want you to only be thinking about it as an aspect of the cloud.
