Hello, I am not sure what caused this change recently, but suddenly I cannot adjust the size of my Outlook email window on my Apple MacBook Pro screen. For example, I like to have Outlook and Teams open at the same time, and usually shrink them both so they are half width and I can have them side by side. Now, I can longer make the Outlook window slimmer from the left or right. It can only stay full screen width. I can make it shorter from the bottom, still. But that is not what I want. Does anyone know why this suddenly changed, or how to fix it? I have done all the things like quit the app and reload, and restart my whole computer. Thank you.

This worked on a couple of Macs for me: On your Toolbar - choose the 3 dots and choose Customise Toolbar - select Reset Toolbar.
The main Outlook window should now be resizeable and you can add tools back in as needed.
I didn't really want to reset my toolbar, but I tried it because it was a quicker fix than switching to legacy Outlook and back. It didn't work fully. It allowed me to shrink Outlook a bit more than before, but not as much as I need.
it worked!!! tysm!
Thank you! This worked for me as well.
I have the same problem of not being able to resize horizontally. I can resize Outlook vertically, but the width is actually larger than my mac screen. I have to keep moving Outlook from left to right to see the full Outlook window. This is AWFUL.
