New Outlook Not Syncing Read Status for Gmail

Anonymous

Hi, I'm running the new version of Outlook on Windows 11, and have connected to both my Uni (O365) and Gmail (Microsoft Cloud). O365 works fine, but the Gmail account doesn't sync read status back to gmail. I.e. outlook gets the correct read status from Gmail, and it syncs things like starring/flagging emails back to Gmail. But although I can mark things as read in Outlook, that status never syncs back to Gmail. The same is true on 3 different PCs, so it's not peculiar to one particular computer.

Any ideas?

I hope this issue is resolved prior to forcing users to use the new version in 2024.

It's safe to assume this feature is not supported at this time. Which is unfortunate and I hope it gets reolved later.

It's a huge annoyance for me because I may use outlook ok my pc and gmail app on my phone or web client on another instance and it looks like I have leagues of unread messages.
