        I would pay money to see the McDonald’s CEO eat an entire McDonald’s burger product in a single sitting with zero camera cuts.

      Use? Their livelihood should depend on using functions of their app. “Couldn’t find that email in two mins? Sorry you just lost 100K.”

      I was about to say that as bad as Outlook was, I actually used its search to figure out some Jira ticket because just… damn trying to find a Jira ticket based on a few keywords is just a pain in the ass…

      I don’t know what the hell happened to outlook’s search function with the update to 11, but I’m convinced it was actual sabotage.

      Outlook insists that no one has ever sent me anything. If I search for an email from a specific person, that person doesn’t exist. Unless sometimes they do. The first three letters of their last name, out of order? Fine, can find them no problem unless you’re looking for when they sent you an attachment. Then no.

      Copy and pasting their name in to the search bar? Who the fuck you talking about guy??

      Looking for an email that has “and” in the subject line?

      Here’s every email you have with the letter A in it. Hope this helps! By the way have you tried CLAUDE?!

        Yah, I had a similar thought regarding Google and the SEO which changed recipes into page long stories about the author’s grandmother. Instead of wading through all the text to find the ingredients, just use ai.

      Honestly copilot search of emails is definitely a step up to the outlook search… Which doesn’t say much…

    Life pro tip that will make your IT deparment hate you: you can use Evolution and change the client id to match outlook’s one in the advanced settings. It’ll look like you are using the standard outlook client from your IT department point of view, but you’ll actually get a usable interface instead. I assume that thunderbird has the same options to override the client id, but I haven’t checked.

    Don’t blame me if you get in troubles though.

    Do it while being asked by a middle manager if you saw the email last week. Fucking story of my life.

    Holy shit this is brilliant. I find much better results searching our archive solution for a term than whatever Outlook returns for me.

    Next can we get a super cut of the CEO using teams to connect to a few different meetings? Sure it might be fine a couple times in a row but that software is such dogshit in general.
