I cannot spellcheck in the new outlook 20231215008.08 . The editor is greyed out in the edit options. I have edge as my default browser and the MS editor ext in edge. Keep in mind I am talking about the New Outlook APP, but I am unsure if it feeds off od edge settings for the app.

Microsoft Editor is not available in new Outlook for GCC tenants
We are in the GCC license and found a workaround.
In the new Outlook, go under Settings > Mail > Compose and Reply > Pop-Out Settings. Check to select the "Pop-out to a new window" setting.
It must be a bug, because if you start an email in a new pop-up, the spell check works. If you compose an email inline, the spell check doesn't work.
Hope someone will find this useful.

Actually, very simple.
