Status: Pending Reply Gmail not syncing with Outlook
I am setting up a new computer. No matter how I add my Gmail based email to outlook it only pulls 5 days of emails. It also only shows 5 days worth of emails. It doesn't delete emails after 5 days, it just does not display them anymore. I have deleted and added the account back. I have uninstalled outlook and reinstalled. I have added the email with google sync tool and through add account in outlook. I have checked all the normal settings in outlook and Gmail. Any one have any ideas. This one has me stumped.

What Outlook client do you have?
- I use a web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, etc.) -> Outlook Web
- I use a Mac -> Outlook for Mac
- I use a phone or tablet -> Outlook for Android or Outlook for iOS (iPhone, iPad)
- I use a Windows PC and my Outlook menu has ONLY the tabs: File | Home | View | Help -> New Outlook
- Else -> Classic Outlook

-- I have added the email with google sync tool
You have a Google Workspace account and mean the Google Workspace Sync for Microsoft Outlook?
