Windows 10: Mac to Windows: Mail, Calendar Clients?

Hi all,

I've been working from a new Windows machine since January, having worked from a MacBook Pro for the 8 years prior. I am enjoying it so far! One thing that I am still struggling with is the loss of the iOS Mail app. I used it for all my email addresses (different Google accounts and an Outlook account). I did not realize how much I relied on that app. I also miss how easily I could sync across laptop and phone (also Apple) using that app, as well as the iOS Calendar app.

On my Windows machine, I have tried two different email clients: the first was the native Mail app with Windows10. I really did not like the interface on this one. I wanted something simpler, cleaner, and admittedly, more like the iOS Mail app if that was possible. I next tried Outlook (which I have a subscription to from the University where I work). This is better than the Mail app, for me, but sometimes still buggy.

There are two things I am looking for some insight on:

1. What Mail apps are you using? Is there any Mail client I can use where there is entirely one inbox, that puts all of the messages from different email addresses into one box? I am still getting used to not having this feature (I had given up on it, but since I am posting something here I figured I might as well ask).
2. Which Calendar apps do you use? What syncs up well across computer + phone?

Thanks in advance! I am open to experimentation and trying different apps/clients, and will continue to keep looking, but any guidance you might be able to provide is much appreciated -- in particular, for those who found something they were happy with after relying on the iOS Mail/Calendar apps.

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

Hey Shawn,
I did that to no avail, then I ran WSReset.exe; now I'm good on all 3, Mail, Calendar and People! *Confused
Go figure!
