Yeah, what a clusterf. And migrating over years worth of e-mails to another program is such a pain.

Thats why I started using web based email a long time ago. Back in the dialup days it kinda made sense to use your ISP's email service but I got so sick of forwarding everything whenever I moved.
And any time the program changes a lot or loses support (Outlook) I dont have to make another switch. Of couse, whenever the web page for web based email gets an overhaul then I gotta relearn everything too. But at least I dont have to move a shitload of messages.

I don't like being tied to the web to access my mail. I use IMAP, so I have it both ways. If I don't have my mail client, and can check on the web.

Yea, ever since I lost my college email, I just use gmail. One changes ISPs every once in a while, but hopefully gmail will be around for as long as I live. Still pisses me off that my steam ID is my old college email address, and I can't change it.
 
I changed it to compact right away and it's much better.

The color contrast (or lack thereof) bugged me for a while but then I got used to it.

Lol people are so funny

No matter what the product is, of the user base of the product, they all react the same way to UI changes.

"I HATE THE NEW FACEBOOK

I HATE THE NEW TWITER

I HATE THE NEW YOUTUBE

I HATE THE NEW GMAIL"

SO predictable 😛 So afraid of change
 
I have no issues with it; have a lovely wood background behind it now and it looks quite nice. To my eyes there is no discernible difference between "Compact", which I just tried, and "Comfortable", which is what I have been set at since the change. Am I missing something? :hmm:

KT

Edit: Oh I see, it did not change because I always have my browser at half screen, if I go full screen I can see a difference.
