New Outlook is not workable for people that have exchange accounts as that functionality is not as yet in place - strangely enough

Tried that yesterday , with no luck at all.
That certainly doesn't help, many of us have tried all the "normal" remedies . It is a software fix that is required , I submit on Apple's side given this happened with the last OS update, that is denying a link from the MS Outlook search from accessing the Spotlight functionality as the Mac version of Outlook (apart from the useless New Outlook) relies on Spotlight for search functionality I believe.
Best solution I have found is is to use the native spotlight search on Mac which will show the email messages as well as others items . Its not perfect but does assisting finding things until this issue is resolved. New Outlook is not an option for most parties.
The search in New Outlook apparently works independently of spotlight and that is whit it works still. Pity new Outlook has such limited functionality in terms of email account types , on computer folders etc.
And New outlook doesn't support "On computer" folders either.
Something is stopping outlook accessing the spotlight search functionality since 12.1 RC and Final version. From my discussions with outlook support they are aware of the issue. New Outlook search works. different way , not utilising Spotlight for searching. However New outlook is not workable for many parties given its limitations currently.
Nor on computer folders or most exchange emails so it may be New but it’s half baked !
How long afterwards did you try searching , in some instances when I rebuilt the spotlight search results appeared for a while then it stopped working.
Hi and thank you for this. I was trying it and at point 3, I get an error - could not find path '-d1'. Could you advise?
Thanks
New Outlook uses its own search functionality not piggybacking on spotlight I believe. I just wish New outlook would work with Exchange and on computer emails! Looking for the various Monterey updates that fix this as some access from Outlook to Spotlight seems to be broken since the last Beta and RC of 12.1 and 12.2 Beta is the same.
It seemed to work for a short period of time and the stopped , this happened to me before after reindexing. strange this all!. Thanks for sharing!
Agreed New Outlook is not an option currently !
New outlook is not a usable option for the majority of users many of whom have exchange mailboxes and on computer folders in outlook as that functionality is lacking currently .
Yes, correct.
This is an issue after the 12.1 version not earlier versions.
