A very dangerous behavior in the new outlook is that hoving the mouse pointer over a hyperlink in an email no longer displays the actual URL of the link.
Seeing the true URL is the #1 way people can avoid getting email scammed. Removing this tool is inviting people to get defrauded. This should not be a default behavior and I cannot see how to resolve this.

Strange...
However, I see that Ted and I have the same WebView2 version 126.0.2592.113.
Albeit different Build and Client versions.
What WebView2 version do you have Vincent?
I have the latest available of the WebView2 and running the version of Outlook that supposedly "fixed" the hover over link issue, but I still don't have the links visible on hover over. This still doesn't appear to be resolved.
This is the version of WebViewer2 I got.
Can also confirm that links do not display when hovering over the links/images in New Outlook. Would be good to get a fix on this.
Any updates on this? Microsoft should be treating this as an urgent security patch. This is absolutely ridiculous that a glaring security issue like this exists in the Outlook software that is used by millions of companies around the world. Absolutely no excuse for this kind of negligence on the part of Micro$oft.
