Microsoft developed the email application Outlook to make it easier for users to send and receive emails on their computers. Although it is an email client, it also offers a number of other functions, including calendaring, task management, and contact management. Managing email accounts from other email providers is also possible with Outlook. For instance, in Outlook, we can configure the webmail email accounts.
