Multiple choices of colors, background and themes like black theme in Desktop Outlook 2016
Multiple choice of colors and themes like black theme in Desktop Outlook 2016. Also provide an option of feature to reduce too much white space used in Microsoft Outlook. The new outlook is very complicated. Unfortunately I was forced to upgrade to outlook 2016 and Windows 10, otherwise I would have kept the old version of outlook. Microsoft need to consider people feedback and make material changes to outlook in order for users to be able to use it in the most efficient way. Right now, I am finding difficulties in using this outlook. Outlook should be more colorful like the old version so users can distinguish between mailbox, folders, junk, recycle…etc. Users should be able to easily find folders and folders with new version of outlook, just like old version. New version is all white and gray and doesn’t allow users to easily find required options. Also layout should be more efficient and unnecessary options must be removed. It’s important for Microsoft to understand that outlook is used for business purpose and users with high volume of work/tasks will not be able to easily coop with their work using a complicated outlook. Outlook layout look very busy and they are so many options. Bring old version back. It was easier to work and handle emails. Also an option to match color schemes or themes with an organization’s color themes would enhance customization.

There is a very faint pale blue highlight over the email that your mouse is over. This should be made a little brighter. Or, better yet, allow the user to set these preferences. I get lost in my email and have to squint from various angles to see which row my mouse is on (if I don't want to click randomly).

Change background color.
Wäre schön wenn man eine dunkle Hintergrundfarbe in Outlook wählen könnte.
Would be nice if you could choose a dark background color in Outlook.

Una sugerencia sería que a este programa se le incluyera el fondo negro pues el más oscuro es un gris oscuro y no juega con el fondo negro.
One suggestion would be for this program to include the black background because the darkest is a dark gray and does not play with the black background.
Una sugerencia sería que a la suite de Office 2016, se le incluyera el fondo negro pues el más oscuro es un gris y no juega con el fondo negro que tengo como base.

Outlook 2019 is the worst for clarity and ease of use. It is so bland, it feels like looking through a wall of fog.
I changed from 2007 to 2013 and that was a step down but now the change to Outlook 2019 is worse again.No colours, No enhancement of headings, sections...

Now that we have the option for a dark theme when reading an email, please could we have a dark theme option for the "Outlook Today" screen.

Actually make the 'Colorful' setting, erm, colourful. A blue bar at the top and very light grey menus is not colourful!

More customization on Outlook 365, it is very dull and hurts your eyes a bit as it is all one color.

Please give us the ability to decide which type of UI we like. You have the source code from the previous version. Just let it be and integrate the new and add an SWITCH statement at the top to determine which one to use for rendering. This is programming 101.
