I have had outlook 365 for years. Nothing on my end has changed. Suddenly (as of yesterday) every time i click on New Email a pop out window opens up (and the signature within my email is HUGE. About a 48 font yet the font showing is 12) This has never happened before and it is QUITE annoying. I have searched within the OPTIONS of Outlook and I cannot find anything with the option to open a pop out window when composing a new email. So there appears to be nothing for me to check/uncheck in this regard. As far as I know i have had no updates to Outlook that would have made this happen. Has anyone else had this happen and have you figured out how to stop it?????

    And WHY CAN'T MICROSOFT FIX IT?? Microsoft must know there is a problem. Maybe they don't care.

    I found the fix, not really. If you choose to hide the reading panel (similar to Gmail). You Click on the name of the the sender and the email will pop up in the same screen. If you click on the subject line, you will get a new pop up window. I'm not sure if you can change this, I guess this is a question for Mirosoft.

    I am having the same issue and can't find a setting for pop-out windows in any of my settings or options.

    I had the same issues, the box was unticked. However, I ticked it and now the extra reading pane is gone.
