Using older versions of Outlook for Mac for personal email and calendar
Tried this and it cut the freeze time down to 15 to 20 seconds. Still an issue, but better. Thanks.

Anytime, for several months now, I hit reply to an email that has an emoji within it, Outlook for Mac completely freezes up for a long time. I've created multiple support sessions within Outlook trying to resolve this. They don't understand the issue. Anyone here have any insight? I am on a 2019 iMac running Ventura 13.0. Outlook version is 16.66.1 (22101101). This is a business PC with an Exchange email account on it.
