Hi all.There is a serious bug with APFS formatted disks and Outlook for MAC 2016 (16.27)To replicate the bug do this steps:1 - Send 3 mails to your Outlook Email account with subject test1, test2 and test32 - Dont read the received mails (dont change their read/not read status), quit outlook and restart your Mac in the next 10 minutes after receiving the test emails (maximum).3 - After restart, launch Outlook and search for the emails in outlook search bar typing test(you can do the same search in the Spotlight Search Bar with the same results)Expected result - Spotlight (our Outlook Search that uses Spotlight Engine) should return the 3 emails receivedActual result: None of the 3 emails are returned as result of the search.Note: If the same test is done in a HFS+ formatted disk with the same Outlook version every acts as expected.Conclusion - When Spotlight dont have the time to index emails in a APFS formated volume before a restart, it will never reindex those emails again, unless you force the Spotlight Reindex (which is a long operation if you have a lot of emails or a lot of files.Please post if you can replicate the bug (i am sure you will).Thanks in advance,Ricardo GuimarãesRHpro, LdaPortugal
