    Some of us are stuck with the new outlook. The spotlight solution does not appear to work. My search results are incomplete and inaccurate. Searches conducted by entering someone's name and using the autofill feature in the search bar come back with partial results. Same thing is I use the person's email address.

    I don't even have the option for Preferences? Where is that? And under general there is no search option? Running Microsoft Outlook for Mac - 16.81.2

    Actually, no, the first post didn't mention Outlook Legacy or New. Both have the same version numbers. The next few posts were about the New Outlook. It was hijacked after that.
