Microsoft has begun inviting Mac users to try its new Google Calendar and Contacts support in Outlook 2016 by downloading and installing the application from its preview site<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Up until now, many of Outlook’s more advanced email features have only been available to users with an Outlook.com, Office 365 or Exchange email address. This week’s global rollout<\/a> means anyone with a Gmail account can take advantage of several of Outlook’s advanced features, including Focused Inbox and richer experiences for travel reservations and package deliveries.<\/p>\n
