Mar 23, 2018 - Okay I got a call from one of my users saying that they are not receiving any new emails. I took a look and logged into our w.| 7 replies. Oct 24, 2016 Outlook 2016 Not automatically syncronizing. When I use my imap g mail account in Outlook 2016 it automatically does a 'send/receive' however I do not get any new emails. If I click 'Update Folders' or collapse the and open the the 'today' field I then get a message at the bottom saying 'folder 'synchronizing' Then my emails come in.
I wrote a Python script that edits emails and appends them to a folder with the IMAP 'APPEND' command. The emails are successfully 'created' as I am able to fetch them from the destination folder after the execution of the APPEND command. The problem is that the newly created e-mails simply won't show up in Outlook. It is worth noting that the destination folder contains older e-mails (previously created with my script) which are still visible in Outlook. I removed all Outlook filters from the concerned folder but still there are no new emails showing up. I also pushed the 'Update folder' button but still no success. There is probably some advanced Outlook configuration that I am missing here ;) I would appreciate some help.

I 'solved' the problem by simply removing and re-adding the concerned account ('Account Properties' -> 'Account Settings' --> 'Remove'/'Add'). Now I will have to wait and check if the problem reappears.
If this does not solve the problem maybe try with another profile.
