No shit. There's a reason they are killing the nice and simple Windows Mail app; it allows you to sync with your email without Microsoft servers between.

Also, the biggest issue for me is the UX. I use outlook for my work email and like to separate my work and personal life, so soon I just won't have an app for my personal email on my PC.

If anyone knows of a similar windows mail app with good touch support and without such a traditional mouse designed UI, please share it.

The new thunderbird UI looked neat and modern.

Isn't that more of a replacement for Outlook? It doesn't look designed around touch like the windows mail app.

Outlook in Office (365) is the actual Outlook.

This is like the Lite Edition.

Huh? Okay, well I don't want either of those. I want a light touch first mail app. If it is like any version of Outlook for PC, I'm not interested as it doesn't meet what I originally asked for.
