My feeling about the app in general is that if it is considered to be of the same functionality as the default mail app for a tablet or phone, then it probably is appropriate for the job. However, as it comes with Windows 8 PCs in general, I have a few questions:
1 - Saving an e-mail (as opposed to an attachment) to the file system - I'm guessing there isn't a method through the UI, it's probably something like Ctrl+S?
2 - Saving an e-mail attachment (this probably applies to saving the e-mail itself as well) - if the user wanted to save the attachment into a folder they want to create in their documents folder, how would they go about doing this? On most e-mail programs on Windows, one can create a new folder in the same UI as saving the attachment as well, but I don't think it can be done in the Win8 default mail app.
3 - To create another mail folder in the mail app, the Microsoft site says to get the bottom bar up (swipe upwards from the bottom, for example), then click on 'New Folder'. However, when I tried this the option for creating a new folder wasn't there. Any ideas why?
