It boggles my mind that Microsoft hasn't updated the Outlook desktop app to use the rendering engine from Edge rather than the 10+-year-old IE engine. That would resolve so many e-mail rendering issues. I imagine it must be due to security concerns.

Outlook comes with MS Office, so it's must render HTML with MS Word. Super logical ;)
I imagine it has less to do with security, and more with backward-incompatible changes.
Yea it’s bec you can send emails directly from word which I do all the time.
