Difference Between Outlook.com Mail and the Mail App
Hello
Can someone please tell me the difference between the two mail applications.
Both facilities seem to do the same thing albeit under a different wrapper. Well that’s the way I see it.
At present, I am using Windows Live Mail.
I have POP3 accounts from 3rd party provider, Gmail and outlook.com accounts. So I wish to manage all my emails under one facility. I am hoping to switch away from this outdated WLM.
I looked at (1) Outlook.com (I access it via MSN), (2) the MS Mail app and (3) the Gmail interface.
Gmail seems too complicated. So that leaves my options 1 and 2.
What I don’t understand is, why MS should offer two facilities to achieve the same outcome.
Can you explain why someone would use one in preference to the other.
Thanks
