[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Looking for PC help

[Stan Rose]

I use use Outlook Classic on my Win11 desktop to connect with a Gmail
account, an MSN email account, an Outlook.com email account and an Exchange
account (alum.mit.edu).

I also connect those same email accounts to the Gmail app on my Galaxy
S26Ultra phone and both the Gmail and Apple mail app on my iPad mini 7.
They are all connected using IMAP protocol. It all works fine; a change on
one device (reading, deleting, creation ) is always reflected on the other
devices as soon as they sync, every few minutes.

I dread being forced to move from Outlook Classic to "modern" Outlook.
