  I use the search to filter down the view of my emails (eg. from:joe) then select the email of interest.
  But if I then want to see the surrounding emails in the conversation or received around the same date, so I clear the filter. Unfortunately the selection jumps completely and the context surrounding the found email is completely lost. Is there a better way to deal with this?
• To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.
  There is a problem with one of my folders.
  It simply wont accept the changes, nor can I delete it. The folder keeps coming back and back and back!
  And it has lost all the emails that were in it!

Note

It is important to turn off logging after you complete your troubleshooting and reproduce the issue. If logging is not turned off, the log files size will continue to increase. If you must keep logging enabled for several hours or several days in order to capture the issue, make sure that the hard disk has sufficient free space.

Log file locations

Depending on the edition and version of Outlook for Mac in which the log is being collected, the log name and location will differ. To locate the log, see the following table.

Note

The character combination '~/' in the Location column in this table refers to the Home folder of the user. This folder is located under the Users folder on the root of the hard disk.

Important

In Outlook for Mac 2011 version 14.2.4 and earlier versions, data was appended to the same log file for every Outlook session. In Outlook for Mac 2011 version 14.2.5 and later versions and in Outlook 2016 for Mac, every time that you quit and start Outlook when logging is enabled, a new log file is created.

Viewing the log file

When you collect and send the log file, Microsoft Customer Service and Support uses it to identify issues. If you are a messaging server administrator, you can use the information in the log file to diagnose issues when you troubleshoot.

The log file contains the following information:

• Issues that occur when email messages, calendar items, notes, tasks, and meeting requests are sent or received.
• Type or severity of errors, if known.

In the Outlook for Mac log collected for Outlook for Mac 2011 and Outlook 2016 for Mac through version 15.11.2, each entry has a name that identifies the feature that is being logged. The following table lists the label for each feature.

In Outlook 2016 for Mac version 15.12.3 and later versions, the log file opens in the Console and you can view it while Outlook is running. Each entry has a name that identifies the feature that is being logged. The following table lists the label for each feature.

Note

The log file may also contain user information. This includes user name, sender and receiver's email addresses, and the contents of the user's email messages, notes, tasks, calendar, and contacts. Microsoft does not use this information to contact users without their consent. If you are concerned that the data file contains sensitive or confidential information, you may review the contents of the data file by using text-editing software and then remove the information from the file before you send the data file to support professionals. Authentication information is not included in the log files.

EWS SyncState message size

Starting with the Outlook for Mac 2011 14.3.4 update, the size of the SyncState binary large object (BLOB) of EWS messages increased from 6 kilobytes (KB) to 32 KB and can be increased up to no more than 300 KB. If you are troubleshooting an issue in which you have to view more of this data, you must increase this value. To increase the default value of the SyncState binary large object of EWS messages, follow these steps:

1. Exit Outlook 2011.

2. Open Terminal.

3. To set the SyncState binary large object of EWS messages to a specific size, type the following command in Terminal window:

   Note

   The placeholder <max bytes> represents a byte value. For example, if you want to change the maximum byte size to 10 KB, you would type the value 10240.

4. To set the SyncState binary large object of EWS messages back to the default size of 32 KB, type the following command in Terminal window:

5. Start Outlook, and then enable Outlook logging.
