    Hi @Michael Diaz ,

    When i use a letterhead and send that from outlook 2016, i used a screentip with a hyperlink to an email address.

    Could your screentip display normally on your web mail? And did this issue occur on all Outlook clients in your organization? If so, I think it may be more related to the method that you created the letterhead and screentips. So how did you create this letterhead and screentip? If you type the addresses in your message directly, could the screentip display normally?

    Acording to my research, under normal circumstances, the screentip would display the "mailto" screen tip automatically when we type an address and click enter like below:

    So in order to further confirm if your issue is related to the method that you created the letterhead, it's suggested to type them manually in your message to check.

    Besides, if the issue only occurred on any specific outlook clients, the issue may be related to these clients themselves, please first check if there're any differences between these clients and others(such as client version and others).

    It's suggested to first troubleshoot your issue as I mentioned above to check, if you still need further assistance, in order to perform more targeted tests on my environment, please provide me with more infromation about your issues.
