I am trying to copy and paste from one email to another and outlook will not keep the format. This is the new outlook app so there is no File tab like suggested in every other answer.

    Yep, that's it. Ridiculous that the previous options aren't immediately available in the ribbon, yet another example of change not being an improvement.

    So far the "ctrl" option is working for me but it is a pain having to do it every time.

    Well, i am happy that it worked for you, but it didn't when I copied mt template into a new email.

    The New Outlook mail does not have the Paste/Keep Formatting option unlike the old Outlook mail.
