Huge changes await the Microsoft Outlook email client. It is currently part of the Office suite, but in Redmond they are preparing a completely separate version, which will be built from scratch. The new Outlook, codenamed Monarch, is being developed under the auspices of the One Outlook initiative and is set to become universal across all platforms.
One Outlook for all
With the new Outlook, Microsoft wants to eliminate the fragmentation of its own e-mail clients and prepare a common one that will be built on web technologies. However, there will be integration into desktop operating systems, for example for using offline storage, sending notifications, etc. Thanks to the shared code, users across all systems should gain the same experience.

However, we will have to wait a while for the new Outlook; Microsoft plans to release the first preview by the end of this year, the replacement of the Mail and Calendar applications in Windows 10 is not to take place until 2022.
Microsoft will only maintain these applications, but will not receive any new features; only this year will there be lighter updates to the user environment corresponding to the planned changes in the system itself.
