Excel losing formatting copy pasting to Outlook Webmail

Hello, I'm having an issue with all users my tenant (and test tenant) where copying and pasting excel cells to an Outlook Webmail email will lose the color of the fonts. 

 

Test data from Excel with color fonts:

 

Copy/Paste into Webmail and the fonts lose their colors:

 

It happens in different browsers, incognito mode, different computers, etc. It does NOT happen using Outlook Desktop. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

Thanks

Nathan

    We have the same thing but we do not paste from Excel but have our own HTML snippet which we generate to paste into outlook webmail, it seems that for some time now Microsoft is getting rid of color, font, sizes etc. when you paste something with a formatting. It is frustrating that they mess this up so badly.
