Question

Can't add accounts on Mail (Windows 10)

Sep 2, 2015 5:05AM PDT

Whenever I open the Mail App on Windows 10, it takes me to a blank Outlook account and if I try to add my google account, it says it 'Cant connect to a service. Anyone know how to fix this?

Microsoft's email app is getting less than glowing reviews. Why use a proprietary, limited to only one OS solution?
