Hello all,
For some reason, Outlook for Mac is dropping attachments and images in the emails I send. It's random, but it happens to me quite often. I managed to find out that this issue has historically occurred with other people using older versions. It seems that this bug has returned to Outlook for Mac.
I have the latest version 16.75.
macOS is also updated, i.e., macOS Ventura 13.4 (22F66).
I didn't have this problem before. It appeared about a month ago. In the meantime, a new version of macOS has been released and there have been several updates for Outlook, but the situation persists.
Attachment randomly disappears from the e-mail which I send with the attachments and pictures. It looks very unprofessional.
This is example how it looks when I add picture to the e-mail when the message is sent.
If I try it once again on the second attempt the attachments/pictures are sent without issues.
I need help, please.Any advice?

2023-08-16T15:43:01+00:00 I am experiencing the same issue -- attachments AND embedded images are stripped randomly when sending to clients. It appears random and is making the Outlook Mac app untenable. Attachments are fundamental to using the app. I updated to the new release 16.76 today that was supposed to have a 'fix' but it does not fix this behavior.

I had exactly the same issue with Outlook on my macOS 13.5, the attachment dropping would appear more and more increasingly until i was unable to sent any an attachment, everything was on latest updates.
The issue was not solved but switching to legacy outlook did the trick.
