after last update, now my Outlook 365 for MAC in legacy mode,

It shows only senders, receipients, date & time when reply.

It does appear in new look, problem only in legacy mode.

Hi Wason HUTAPRAPIN

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.  

Could you please confirm which Outlook for Mac version you are currently using?

If you are using version 16.110, this appears to match a known issue that Microsoft has confirmed in Legacy Outlook for Mac. Specifically, the issue affects the inclusion of the original message content when replying to or forwarding emails. The product team is currently investigating this behavior, and a fix will be released once it becomes available. 

For the latest updates, please refer to the following article, which will be updated as new information becomes available: Replying to or forwarding an email does not include the original message in the email body in legac… 

As a workaround, you may want to consider downgrading to an earlier version of Outlook, if your environment allows it. Alternatively, you may temporarily switch to New Outlook until a fix is released.

If you would like to roll back to an earlier version of Outlook as a workaround, please try the following steps: 

+Open any Office app > Help > Check for Updates > clear the checkbox for “Automatically keep Microsoft Apps up to date.”  

+Quit all Office apps.       

+Go to Applications > choose Microsoft Outlook > Move to Trash.   

+Install the 16.109.3 package from this link: Update history for Office for Mac - Office release notes | Microsoft Learn
