Dark mode text coloring issues

I use Dark Mode in online outlook. Recently, when I reply to emails the text is being set to White instead of Automatic. This makes my emails appear blank to those not using dark mode. When I try to fix or recolor the text, it gets sent through as white text highlighted black.

These are all very recent problems, please fix these issues so that when I type an email or reply, the text is always set to automatic and will change to white on someone's screen using dark mode and black to someone's screen using regular mode. I should not have to check each email and reply to be sure my audience can read it.

    This is definitely a common but intermittent issue and needs to be addressed. I have severe photophobia and I get migraines if I do not use dark mode on every device and/or program. I have not noticed this issue with my Google email or yahoo email. This seems to be just a Microsoft issue and since my job requires us to have a Microsoft email account, I can't use the other emails.

    I have the same exact issue with most emails being received okay and occasional seemingly random emails to different people triggering them to reply stating that I sent them a blank email. It is very frustrating as I preferred the dark mode which was easier on my eyes. I've had to revert back to using white bright mode as I it sends a bad impression when you are having trouble managing your own emails.

    Any new updates on this?

    I did not. I had to revert back to normal mode and do not use dark mode anymore. I could not find anyone to help advise what the issue was and none of my settings changes helped. I hope there is a fix some day because I would very much like to go back to dark mode.
