NEW Outlook Email Format is messing up

I am having major issues in NEW Outlook with the formatting of my emails. I will compose an email, format it properly, and send it. The receiver gets an email with weird large spacing, no spaces where needed, and bullet alignments all messed up. It does not look that way when I send it why are the emails messed up when received? I am using HTML text which has all the issues. I have tried plain text but it does not allow formatting I need like bullets etc. I need this fixed as I can not go back to desktop Outlook as it freezes and crashes all the time. HELP PLEASE!

    I am also having the same issue.

    I type up my email, format it and save it as an outlook item (like my other "template" emails). (saves as HTML)

    The email sends correctly, however, when I go back and open the saved email to send it again, the formatting is gone.

    • Formatting is now in Plain Text formatting.
    • The link I had in the body of the email is now showing up as a the name of the link instead for what I wanted the link to be named.
    • I do NOT have immersive reader turned on.

    I have saved all of my other templates this way and they are still working just fine, but the one that I created today is not working as it should.

    What gives???

    Frankly, we dont have time or skills to properly check every recipient or diagnose Outlook, nor in 2024 should we be having to resort to archaic plain text imo. Perhaps another client doesn't do this ?

    Agree! Happening to me as well, totally unacceptable for professional emails. I have to revert to the Old Outlook to send emails with formatting, although I do prefer to new outlook for other functions.

    I can't understand what the problem is. I experience LARGE text in some parts of the email but not every time and not the same place. And by large I mean huge (100px...) I run a new Graphic Design business and trying to sell good looking typography to my clients. This is embarrassing!

    I have done a few things to try to avoid it, like: even numbered sized text (?!), standard fonts and removing all formatting
