This is crazy and surely there's an easy Settings fix. I've been using Outlook on my Windows PC since the early '90s. Just finally upgraded to Outlook in Office 2019 Pro+ from Outlook 2016. What the heck is Outlook doing by putting dots instead of all the spaces on emails as I'm Replying to them? More importantly, how do I stop it from this madness?
Here's an example:

Thanks Hornblower. My iPhone and my home PC , both using EDGE, go to this when I click that link and I've never found my way in on anything there.
Here's what I just found using my iPhone for the first time at that link:

I'm still struggling. That link does not work for me, as it should. I click on Home Users and it goes to that same site I've seen recently that is a dead end. BUT, if I happen to hover my mouse in the right places, a grey box pops saying [Contact - Microsoft Support]. The problem is, it's not clickable and it just disappears no matter where on it or near it that I click. Heck, I even tried right-clicking near it and scanning thru "View Page Source", hoping I'd see the URL that that was supposed to be linked to. But, I couldn't find anything that made sense.
Maybe my EDGE browser is messing with me if you say that yours works fine?
Here's when I click on your link:

Then I see this after clicking on [ Get Help ]:

Hornblower, how do I get thru to a person at that Microsoft Tech Support site to help me? Everything that I’ve tried typing in at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/home/contact after picking one of the related Products like Windows or , just wants to give me a link to Get Community Help which brings me here to Microsoft Answers.
There must be a trick. Hopefully you know what it is?
