Outlook MAC search not working on Monterey

I have a new MBP M1, with fresh Monterey. I moved my data with the assistant from the old MBP, I have all the letters in Outlook (v15.46), but search in Outlook not works, it gives a "No results found" message in all folders. Old methods for reindex Spotlight is not working (eg. add and remove Main Profile to Spotlight). How can I solve this problem? Thanks

Today I deleted the Main Profile, remove all mail accounts, and made a new profile, and add a mail address. But the search still not works.

    I just received my new MacBook Pro 12/21. Office 2021. I have done the same items as above, but it has not helped either. Search still works fine on Iphone and Prior Mac. Does not work on two different email accounts, so it is not connected to that. Using the old Outlook.

    Thanks

    I talked with Apple. The support person told me to select the "New Outlook" - a button at the top.

    It did some sort of quick conversion, but when I reopened Outlook - my search works now.

    I don't know if the Finder Spotlight search is working well, but having my email searchable - is huge.

    hello, thanks, but I use Outlook for Mac, v15.56, and it has no "New Outlook" button because this is the new Outlook. Spotlight search is working. It seems to be a Microsoft problem, because filters are also not working in Outlook
