MS Outlook offers the best-suited features for the email communication and supports all types of email accounts like Exchange, Microsoft 365, IMAP, SMTP, POP, etc. Multiple Outlook accounts can be managed in the single Outlook application and work independently. The core objective of all these accounts is to send and receive emails, so the email-based features like resizing images in Outlook email, are also better than other email clients.
If you want to incorporate images in the sending emails, then you can adjust its size within the email body easily. You can enlarge it to make it more visible or compress a large image to reduce the size of overall email. Many email clients offer a limited size to the email to make it more manageable. Sometimes, the receivers do not get the email due to a large-sized image in the email.
If you are also concerned about the size of the images in your email, then Outlook offers some inbuilt methods that you can use to resize images in Outlook email easily. You can not only resize the image, but put a restriction on the total size of the mailbox. The benefit of putting a restriction on the total size of the mailbox makes the overall mailbox more sizeable because the sent mails are present in the sent items folder within the mailbox.
