ipad sidebar problem from Outlook

For some reason when I tap on a link in an Outlook email on my iPad, it opens Safari in a sidebar, which covers up half the email and is hard to get rid of (I have to swipe it all the way from the right and then back to the left).

How can I restore it so links open in Safari and not the sidebar? (and why is it so hard to get rid of it?)

thanks, Scott

Disable Link Preview in Apple Mail (appeared in iOS 16.1.1) Ugh, why has Apple done this? Now I paste a URL into an email to report spam and the mail app executes the call to the server generating a “rich link” I don’t want a rich link. I certainly did not want to tell the spammer I was here. 😩 How do we opt for basic paste without the unhelpful extras?

Adobe Reader pdf icon not shown in email attachments After updating to macOS Ventura, Adobe Reader pdf icon disappeared in Email attachment's. Instead a little white icon is shown. This also happens with pdf files downloaded with Safari. In Finder the icons are shown correctly. I use Outlook as email program. I tried if the same happens with Apple Email app, and yes its the same. Anyone has the same problem? Any solution? I don't know if its a Ventura problem, or a Adobe Reader problem.

can't open links in my email Since I did the latest update I cannot any longer open links in my email that were at one time able to be opened. These are trusted and well used sites that I use to be able to open their links. Does anyone have any solutions?
