    Same here - and Microsoft keep suggesting strange solutions via Terminal etc. I see there was an update yesterday, installed today (Nov. 30th). But it does not help, There is a search in the New Outlook. However, this app is not good for so many reasons. In the Legacy Outlook, there is no search.

    There is no preferences link in Outlook. I am running version 16.78. Please show me how to find Outlook > Preferences > Search > Indexing > Rebuild.
