Description

Tweaks to the Outlook Mail UI such as hiding ads, reducing the height of various components and making better use of screen space.

Notes

This simple style makes more efficient use of space in the Outlook Mail page.

Reduced margins and padding around folders and messages means you can see more on-screen at a time. The Microsoft 365 ad and right column are also hidden, so you won't get ads or other things distracting you while you work (works best in combination with an ad-blocker extension like ABP or uBlock Origin).

PS. to get even more space to view messages when using a preview pane on the right, go into Display Settings and disable the message preview line to get 2 lines per mail instead of 3. You can also go into Quick Settings in the beta skin and turn off 'Group messages by date' for even more space.
