&gt; Outlook for Mac is available from the Mac App Store as a 974MB download.<p>I’m used to software bloat, but this download is enormous for an email&#x2F;calendaring client.<p>Does it include some sort of Windows compatibility layer to assist with porting and feature parity with the Windows version? I know Microsoft did something like that for the Linux port of SQL Server.

just a few days late to get me to use outlook ... just last friday I was installing outlook to open a .msg file with attachments, the hassle of having to setup an account was enough to uninstall again and asses if I trusted a pip package to extract it for me. Much respect to those open source developers.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;TeamMsgExtractor&#x2F;msg-extractor">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;TeamMsgExtractor&#x2F;msg-extractor</a>

Protip: If you make your email app free, developers might actually download it to test emails in it instead of perpetually ignoring it

Why are they still making this? The law suit’s requirements lapsed like a decade ago.

It’s pretty terrible. Free isn’t cheap enough.
