Why is someone using Outlook to sync a different email address?
Why not keep the apps separate? Or use the Mail app built into Windows?

Outlook is an email client. It can work with any email provider. The fact that they started calling the server-side “Outlook” as well has made things super confusing.
So the gist is the default mail app is being “upgraded” by Microsoft to Outlook for Windows app, so your account credentials previously stored in the mail app now got uploaded into the cloud.

Oh gross. Yeah, that’s not okay.
Thanks for the clarification
