Hello Community, in the outlook app on my Mac when I hit reply I often (but not always) have lines at the top of my email with the text in bold. Almost as though it is stuck on the previous email content. How do I fix this please?

    The problem is really annoying. For me the legacy version solved the problem. But be aware that you have to reconfigure your accounts for this. Probably the legacy version also lacks other functionality that I am not using.

    Same issue here. Unacceptable to paying money for this with no solution. It's embarassing to send business emails that look this way. Microsoft, please address.

    I am having the same issue. This is so annoying!!

    I am sending multiple emails a day and the lines make it quite difficult. I had to switch back to Gmail on my browser which I don't prefer. Additionally, some of the recipients told me that the colours and fonts are all over the place even though it looked fine on my side.

    I have the same issue. It's really annoying that I can't use the Outlook app to send a normal looking email since a few weeks ago.

    Any updates on a fix for this issue?
