@glr0221 We have reproduced this issue within Outlook Web and it has been indicated that the issue also exists on Outlook Desktop. Could you please clarify if you are referring to the 'New Outlook' experience on Windows?

[glr0221]

@anjalitp Sorry for the confusion. The bug happens on New Look Outlook and Browser-based (OWA) Outlook. Legacy/Classic outlook is working fine.

@glr0221 Thanks for confirming. We have created a backlog item for the issue reported. Unfortunately, we don't have a timeline to share at this point.

@anjalitp it is sad to hear that you don't have a timeline yet. This is really a big deal for us since we don't use the MoreInfo section. Some, if not most of our users, do not want to see a link in the dialogs. I hope you can get us feedback if this gets a schedule in the future. Thank you.
