Using “New” Outlook is granting Microsoft’s webmail server permission to access and read everything in your mailbox, from the day it was created to the latest email received. Anyone using it willingly is a fucking idiot.
All it IS is an edge webview window loading outlook.com. Go ahead. Block outlook.com and watch it fail spectacularly.
I’m concerned about what you wrote here. I’m not clear though – how is what you wrote different from what the outlook desktop does otherwise? Outlook always had access to my email and calendar account, doesn’t it?
The “traditional” Outlook (Which Microsoft now calls Outlook “Legacy”) stores your data locally, on your local storage inside your PC.
“New” Outlook allows outlook.com to sync your mail to THEIR MAIL SERVER, allowing them to train the AI on it, etc. It’s no longer YOUR email. It’s theirs.
