Outlook mail body has changed - looks very strange now

Since about a week, my private Outlook mail body looks completely weird:

- instead of using the whole width of the window, only about 10 cm in the middle are used

- Font has changed to Aptos

- Font has very wide spacing

However, when I send such a mail to my business Outlook, all looks fine.

See the 2 screenshots below:

sender

receiver

How can I set this back?

  • The problem was eventually solved after 2 calls with Microsoft chat.

    The cause of the problem was that I had by mistake activated the "Immersive Reader". I did not even know that this thing existed, nor what it does. Doh!

    This is exactly my problem, but where is immersive reader.? How do you deactivate it?

     

    However think I found something like immersive reader which makes text bigger in Systems ease of access, EXCEPT, adjusting that has changed nothing. All the emails I receive on my PC now look like they were formatted for a smart phone, and I HATE IT!  The spacing is double spaced and it takes forever to read a simple email. What has happened?
