RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, to return to Outlook Today, click Outlook Today either in Folder List view or on the Outlook shortcuts bar. Either action updates changes to the folder associated with Outlook Today.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
