Outlook for mac not syncing Gmail inbox

Hi All,

We have a user who started travelling last week and their outlook is not syncing their gmail inbox anymore. 

 

Every other sub folder under inbox is synced as well as sent items deleted etc

 

Tried to send an email to test if the imap sync is working correctly, the email sent and displayed in sent items.

 

User is running Ventura macOS and latest build of outlook updated 18 dec 22.

 

Checked gmail settings and imap is turned on 

 

Reset views in outlook...nothing seems to fix this issue

 

thoughts?

      Last 5 version of Outlook for Mac (now I am running 16.73 on Ventura 13.3.1) you can't delete or move messages that just arrive in the inbox, because after the command the Outlook starts automatically to sync with Gmail and the messages reappear. Anyone is facing the same problema? Beta version just got worst for this problema.

    jasonlevy Me too... There's a problem with sync. That's a headache. I'm paying the Office 365 subscription because Outlook was the best for my purposes. What's happening? There are some bug revisions in updates these last days, but no one is making outlook to work again.

    Any suggestions? 

    Thank you Tech Community!!
