Mail sync ???

I'm using the pre installed mail/calender app. I use the search function a lot but it seems impossible to search for anything that is more than 1 month old.
Outlook account.
I have changed the sync period in every option.
Is it a software issue or could it be a setup fail ??

Know that there are other mail apps......
