2104 13929.20372 Outlook makes address look-ahead useless

Question

Microsoft Office Home and Business 2016 just updated to 2104 13929.20372 and the biggest issue I see now is when I'm composing a new email. I try to address it by typing in the first letter of the user I want to send it to and typically it shows me everyone with a J in their name. The font used to be small and so all of my J names would be there on my screen. Now the font is so huge that I can only see two addresses and the most likely one I wanted is off the screen at the top of the page. How do I adjust the size of this font and get rid of the extra line in between entries? I see that I can turn off the pictures in people peek but I still have this double spaced super huge font list of names where the least likely ones at the bottom are the only ones I can see.

Hi @Ken Lynch ,

Welcome to our forum.

As I know, this is a known issue from Outlook Version 2104 (Build 13929.20296) and it's fixed in Version 2104 Build 13929.20386, for more information, please refer to this article : AutoComplete list scrolls off the screen in Outlook

In this case, it's recommended to update your Outlook to the latest version to check(File>Office account>Update Options>Update now)

Hope that would be helpful to you.
