Outlook 365 for Mac - not sending attachments

I have an issue whereby Outlook for Mac is losing attachments when sending emails (typically, but not exclusively, PDF files).

If a file(s) is/are dragged and dropped into an email it is shown as attached and appears to send as normal. There are no error messages or bouncebacks, and the first we know that the email has lost the attachment is when we are advised by the recipient. Then when checking the sent folder, the email is there but again without the attachments.

Doesn't do this every-time though... sometimes the email goes with the attachments as it normally should.

I'm using version 16.62 (22052500)

Has anybody else had this issue and is there a fix? Or is it a software glitch?

    Thanks! I have been writing emails with attachments in the app, saving in drafts, going to the web version, and sending. Another work around.

    I'm experiencing the exact same thing. Attachments disappear whilst sending. It is quite annoying!

    I was baffled to see that this omission is since mid 2022!

    I'm facing this problem more or less since June 2023. Before, it happened from time to time, now, after the last updates there's no way to attach a file in an email. Please fix this problem, it's frustrating.
