Many years ago I had an Outlook account. Am I permitted to use Outlook again?
I do not want to access any old emails. I simply want to begin to use Outlook again, with Mac ios. It was easier to use than any email program I have used since then. I want to continue to use the email address I have been using ever since that time.
