Windows default mail app should not be web based

Extremely frustrating app update stuck in "pre-processing" not even allowing for a chance of pushing the update that fixes bugs

⚠️IMPORTANT NOTICE⚠️ Yeah the app is broken in 0.4.x that added 2fa support. It breaks usually a day after first login I'm trying to publish fixes however Microsoft Store certifications close during weekends. So it may take up until next week for the fix to rollout NEVER PUSH TO PROD ON FRIDAY
