  I just upgraded to Outlook 2016 from 2013
  I do not want to EVER see the quick access toolbar. I have no use for it and even when the ribbon is hidden it makes the top blue are where the file menu is two lines high and I want it one line high with just the file menu tabs. Is that so difficult? I am sick of MS introducing view/layout features that waste my valuable screen space. It was bad enough that the upgrade trashed the layout I had before (would it really be so difficult to preserve and reapply that during an upgrade) but this quck access toolbar is just one more annoyance.
