Automatic End of Line Hyphenation is Bad
I wanted to encourage the developers of Outlook to turn off automatic end of line hyphenation in Outlook. After a recent update, Outlook on my laptop is now automatically hyphenating words at the ends of lines -- even when the email text is intended to be left aligned and consequently rag right. The automatic hyphenation results in the body text of incoming emails often looking almost justified, but not quite. You should let the composers of emails choose whether they want their text left-aligned/rag-right or justified. There's no reason to override the left alignment and make everything badly justified.
