You don't get email with personal domain on Office 365 for home. People don't get it for email, they get it for the Office suite.

Hopefully they bring it back. That would encourage Google to do the same

Lame, I think outlook.com's web client is a lot better than OWA.

Agreed: if I were restricted to only one free webmail account, Outlook.com would be the one I would choose.

That might be useful if you can reply on your own domain address as the most basic offering otherwise through them is £35 when it could have been far cheaper on outlook.com to get exchange style actibesync.

I disagree. I think the latest version of OWA is better than the Outlook desktop app in many ways. OWA is more usable and feature-rich than many other web mail apps, including Outlook.com.

If it wasn't for the lack of accessing shared calendars and tasks on Office 365 hosted email, I'd be using it for my personal email solution.

Has there been a big change recently? The last time I used OWA it was incredibly primitive and ugly.

I use it daily and the new version is VERY good. But I agree with you about the prior version, it was TERRIBLE. When was the last time you used it?

About 18 months or so.

How new is the new version?

I can't get a "version #", but it looks similar to the Outlook 2013 style or a streamlined-version of Outlook.com UI.
