    Must needed for official mails

    Date: Jun 17 2021

    Summary: Best mailing application I've come across. It provides us all the required features for composing efficient mail as well as categorizing mails.

    Positive: 1. One of the most useful features of Outlook is that we can create different folders in inbox main folder, and create rules for them, it helps us in sorting out mails,
    2. Other useful feature is Focused Inbox and Others Inbox, non-actionable mails can be sent to Others folder such as monitoring mails etc.,
    3. Easy to set confidentiality of a mail,
    4. We can assign different priorities to the mail and and flag mails also,
    5. Other important feature is Reminders (Calendar), it gives notification of an event before 15 mins. and at the scheduled time,
    6. We can add several add-ons (both Microsoft's and our internal organizational),
    7. We can compose mail just like we edit any document, much easier to compose mail than other competitors.

    Negative: No major Cons as of now.
    Sometimes Outlook gets hanged when it has to load several mails, if this gets fixed, it will be more faster to use.
