Outlook for macOS

[ivanwi11iams]

With the Flag options being upgraded in Outlook, on macOS, similar to the options available on Windows, it might be time for me to start using them again. Especially since we now have the option to have a flag reminder!

When I switched from Windows to Mac, I simply could not use flags the way I was used to, on Windows. And I had to use Categories instead. With the Reminders feature now added to Flags in Outlook on Mac, time to try it, and see how it goes.

It always annoyed me that with Categories, they were never the same as I moved from computer to computer, or device to device. Whereas Flags should be the same no matter the device I am using...

I would have liked to be able to use Outlook for macOS, especially after the re-design it looks cool. They don't seem to support email aliases though which is a bummer.

...as in to be able to send 'from' a particular alias email address.

Yes exactly, I am using my iCloud email with a custom domain. The likes of Spark, Canary etc. do allow users to enter freely any 'from' address.

Hmm, sorry, unsure. I do have aliases, but, I do not send from them. Merely for incoming emails...

Yes that works automatically as it's happening server-side, i.e., your mail server dictates if emails sent to your aliases, should appear in your inbox, email clients just fetch them.

Using aliases as a 'from' address though, that requires the client to support it.
