Mac users no longer have to spend money on Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft is making the email service free for Macs, so now there's no need to pay for a Microsoft 365 subscription or Office license to use it. If you use Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or any other Microsoft apps within the subscription, however, you'll need to keep paying for the subscription.
