I mean it even harvests typing data and Outlook also includes calendars etc… It’s really bad.

But yes, I just suggested a re-evaluation of the use of Microsoft Outlook to my company …

What would you get them to use instead? I use Proton personally, but I doubt many companies are using it at scale.

Use geary as a client with a private company selfhosted mailserver.

A company would use a Microsoft 365 plan that includes Outlook for Office 365, not a Windows Mail app. An the MS365 agreement would come with protections of company data from sharing with advertisers.

In other words, I wouldn't worry if my company used Outlook. But never log in to your private mailbox from a corporate device.
