I am having an issue on Outlook for Mac ver. 15.26.1 running OS Sierra
When I have Outlook in "full screen" mode and an email opened in a window and hit "reply" the entire screen goes semi-grey and when I click anywhere on screen it gets rid of the grey but it minimizes the email window. I can click on the minimized window to bring it back up and then it's fine, but it's seriously annoying and slows down my efficiency and productivity. This only happens when I have the email opened in a window and hit "reply". It does not happen when I just select the email from the inbox and hit reply from the tool bar. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi all,
This has been reported on other forum threads. We have a fix for this now, and it should be in an upcoming update.
Thanks John that's great to hear.
I am also running into this issue
Hi Chhabra,
As John said above, the fix would be released in an upcoming update. Please be patient for the update to come out for you.

Hi,
I am also experiencing exactly the same issue and it is annoying especially when you have to respond to many emails during your working day.
It is also interesting that I got another Microsoft Office update this week and now running Outlook for Mac Version 15.27 (161010) but this issue is still not fixed! I can see from previous posts that it was promised in upcoming release. Any update Microsoft?
