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 have been going through the same issue and this seems super unprofessional, for a student who is contacting recruiters with multiple rounds of interviews and needs to show professionalism. It is hard to justify your strength as attention to details if you send an email with simple formatting issues. The indentation, bullet points, space mess up when someone reply the email in the same thread. This really needs to be fixed ASAP. I saw people have been going through this question early in March cannot believe this is still not being fixed!!!!

    Hi all, is there an update to this as it's really bothering as every email incl. signature is messed up on recipient's end (bullet points, spaces etc.)? Of course, it's updated to the latest version provided to business users within the company. Thanks

    Hi,

    I've been having the same issue. This is an email app. Writing an email with proper paragraph style and spacing is basic. It's messed up on the web version also. Your point number 3. Avoid unnecessary styles, is not helpful. If you want the users to not use extra styles other than plain text, why do you made styles like bold, underline and text color available. And those are basic styles to me to form a proper email. I don't have time to keep finding ways to resolve this issue. Outlook makes me and my company looks unprofessional. I have been sending emails to clients from my Gmail instead. Works just as expected.
