Am I the last one still on the old Outlook.com?

Just wondering if there are any others stuck on the old Outlook.com? Wanted to move my domain to Outlook.com, but the new service doesn’t work with the old format.

    <p>How do you tell the difference. Do you mean Outlook that comes with Office 365 i.e. Outlook 2016 or mail Outlook.</p>
    <p>I think MS have confused both us and themselves.</p>

    <p>The old Outlook says "Outlook.com" in the upper left hand corner of the email browser window. The new one says "Outlook Mail". The old one doesn’t have integrations, and also keeps me from signing up for the Outlook premium account where I can use my own domain name.</p>

    <p>If you are,&nbsp;I suggest making a backup of your contacts. The new Outlook made a hash of mine. Decided to merge addresses from Skype and Outlook, giving preference to Skype (which I use almost never) and did things like merging contacts with the same email address (anyone else know couples and families that use one email, but have multiple phones).</p>

    <p>Thanks for the comment on backup. Perhaps a bit paranoid but I always keep&nbsp;cloud and local backups&nbsp;of my emails.</p>

    <p>I’m still on the old Outlook as well. &nbsp;Kind of dreading the change as I never use the web interface anyway.</p>

    <p>Finally got the update. Not part of the 0.1% who were not yet upgraded yet. Now to see how Outlook.com premium works on it.</p>
