One last thing: if we could avoid commenting about how chemo is a scam and I'm just a tool of the medical-industrial complex and if I just took hemp oil or ate better or whatever I'd be cured- that'd be great. Thx.

Do people say those things to you?

Outlook the desktop program and Outlook.com are two different teams with tangentially related products. Outlook is good for businesses. Outlook.com, not so much- that's what Office 365 is for.

Anyway, I see a couple problems with this:

  1. Such a system would only allow you to use one email client (unless you were to pass the private key around between your devices). If your hard drive breaks, all of your emails are now inaccessible forever. Microsoft support would get a lot of angry calls from people who don't understand what "encrypted and we don't have the key" means.

  2. Outlook.com is not tied to Outlook and Outlook is not tied to Outlook.com. Microsoft probably wants to keep it that way on account of they don't want to make another donation to the EU Anti-Trust commission.
