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.

Same problem. Appears to only affect emails sent by other online Outlook emails from within the organization. Emails sent from outside the organization, or by iOS/Android app, are not affected. Verified with test emails from all three sources.
same problem on outlook web
Same here. This is going to be a rough day if this is not fixed.
Same issue with dark text in dark mode. Just started today. Multiple users with same problem.
I'm having a similiar issue as I have always used Dark Mode and never experienced anything like this. But now every time I get incoming emails the letters are black (instead of how they usually would be white) and it's so hard to read the text which forces me to switch back to light mode. It's so annoying and I haven't found a way to solve this! Please help.
