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 issue here. I use dark mode for my epilepsy and light sensitivity issues. Temporarily switched back to light mode
Hi
I'm also having the same issue that started today, very frustrating as I have dark mode because I struggle with the brightness of normal mode and also sometimes find the text too pale to read properly.
When I'm sending emails out they appear to be normal as I have checked with my colleagues in the office as I'm the only one that uses dark mode. Text appears normal to them.
Have found that if I highlight the text then I can read it while remaining in dark mode if that helps anyone?
Have checked on mobile and that seems to be normal but not sure why that should be
Hopefully it will be sorted quickly
Same issue as of 11/3/2023. Seems they changed something and broke it. It isn't browser dependent, and no setting seems to fix it.
