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 problem is not in the Outlook app. to the client. We reproduced the same directories on a new system, cleanly installed in the client's Office365 account. It is not dependent on the version of the client, it is both in legacy and in the new outlook, such as 16.82 and 16.84 (for mac) Both the normal channel, preview and beta - the same everywhere. The problem is in the data on the exchange. It doesn't show up in the online client.

The problem is in the data on the exchange. It doesn't show up in the online client. The strange behavior is that the folder gradually fills up with approximately 250 mails and after pressing the sort button, the mails jump to the older date, it flashes for a while and finally the folder is empty again, until the sort button in the upper right corner of the folder is touched.

    Same, I'm so glad, I was led to this thread, because I also couldn't figure this out.

    @Microsoft, please make it go away :(

    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!!

    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.
