I am using Exchange Web Services (EWS) with python, I used "UpdateItem" (soap request) to update message (IPF.Note) body and subject, i can see the changes in OWA but outlook not fetching the updated message under any circumstances, is there any property or another method i need to use to make outlook notice the change and download the message again?

I tried to use the Update Folder button and still nothing. I am using outlook 2016 with Exchange online (Office 365).

OK, I have found kind of solution, outlook only pulling the message again if the message moved to different folder, so i moved the message to another folder (junk) and back to the original folder and then outlook fetched the updated message.

I know it's not the best solution though
