Microsoft also adds an accessibility feature to Microsoft Outlook Client. While composing an email to large audiences or external users, accessibility violations will now be brought up to your attention, through a mailtip. Microsoft said that if you want to turn off this feature, navigate to File > Options > Ease Of Access > "Accessibility checker options" and select the "Run the accessibility checker only when I open it" option.
