How can I disable Mail and only use Outlook 365 for my Outlook.com account?

1

When I set up this new laptop I synced my Outlook.com account and added it to Mail. I now have Office365 through my employer and have added my Outlook.com account to Outlook proper. However, whenever I receive an email @outlook.com I get notifications from Mail.

Can I remove my account from Mail without removing it from Windows 10? Can I nuke Mail altogether?

1"Can I nuke Mail altogether?" - While it is possible I don't suggest you do this. I suggest just disconnecting/disassociating your account with Mail and then changing the default email program to Outlook instead. – Ramhound – 2017-10-27T14:07:03.330

To remove your email account from Windows 10 Mail app, you need to use Settings -> Manage Accounts -> select account -> Delete account.
