Hi. Last night when I was using my Outlook mail it suddenly created two new files, e.g. OwaFV15.1ALLFocused etc. It then seemed to put my last few months emails into these folders (one being the replacement for 'focused' and the other one for 'other'. Looking online I can see a brief question/discussion about this in the last few hours so I assume this is a new problem. How do I stop this happening, and why did it happen? Is it sinister? Any help gratefully received, thank you!

    The bug for the issue is still active and being investigated. The folders are not cleared up for everyone as they thought. The service team is investigating if any other ways to force sync to clear the folders. There is a note saying these are created as Search Folders. My peer that covers Mac Outlook is checking if he can document this issue. If that happens, I will share the link here.

    Hi , yes , it is Microsoft Outlook for Mac , latest . But - it is not depending on app client or version . Problem is inside Office365 structure at MS server side. We tested really clean OS and Office365 install from the scratch , several clients versions including betas . Problem is on MS server (cloud ) side.

    What mail client are you using? There are several cases in escalation for Mac Outlook. The service team is investigating the latest reports so just confirming it's still being worked on.

    The folders have disappeared as magically as they arrived.

    Nothing done at my end so conclude done by the MS end.

    Probably all caused by some update in the background. Just confirms they control and not us!!
