How to get outlook search indexing to work for office 365?
-1
Good day all.
I have office 365 subscription and whenever I want to search for emails in my inbox I get no results. I get frequent emails from a person and they don't appear when I search, but I can see them in my inbox.I have tried the following:
- Checked to see if Outlook is marked for indexing.
- Repaired the pst file.
- Rebuild the Indexing for Outlook.
- Did a quick repair and a online repair.
- Deleted old sent items within Outlook.
- Created a new account via Control Panel.
- Recreated a pst and imported my old pst.
- Created a new profile from Control Panel and used my data file in the new
profile.
I dont know what else I can do to get my inbox indexing to work. Can anybody help me?

Firstly is this your primary mailbox or a shared mailbox?, do you have your outlook in cached exchanged mode (In outlook does it state "Connected to:Microsoft Exchange" or something like "Online with Microsoft Exchange"). When searching via outlook is it only this particular recipient you are unable to search for?
