iPhone won't send pictures as attachments to Outlook

We recently downloaded Office 365. We used to use a standard Outlook on our PCs, but since moving to 365, I can no longer email pictures from my iPhone and have them sent as attachments. They are embedded and a pain to save to the PC.

I used to be able to send usually up to 5 photos per email. They would come up in my Outlook on the PC as JPEG attachments. I could easily move them from the email to a folder, copy them over to a new email, etc. Now, they are embedded in the email. Say I send 5 pictures. I have to left-click an image, right-click, Save As, and then worm my way through where I want to save it. Second picture...I have to do the exact same thing. It doesn't even go back to where you saved the last one at on the PC. Very time consuming and so much more difficult than it used to be.

Are there any settings I can change to get this to go back?

Thank you!

Hi IDislike365,

 

Thanks for posting in our forum. According to my research and tests, the issue you’re experiencing is a known problem. To attach an picture as an attachment to an email, I suggest you try these steps: select the picture on your iPhone > Share > Outlook. After performing these steps, the picture will be attached as an attachment to an newly created email in Outlook.
