I opened outlook today, Friday evening, the current message was from
Wednesday. Restarting has no effect.

"The current message was from Wednesday". And that tells us WHAT? It
says nothing that there are messages in your mailbox that are later than
that. If you use the webmail interface to your e-mail account, do you
see any new mails in the Inbox folder?

We are supposed to guess WHICH version of Outlook that you use?
We are supposed to guess WHAT type of e-mail account you use (POP, IMAP,
HTTP, Exchange)?
We are supposed to guess if there is an error message or not?

Did you check the size of your .pst file? 2GB max (1.87GiB) for the old
ANSI format for PST files.

Usually you get one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go
on (no details, no versions, no context), usually they will just move on
to the next post and never return to yours. Go read:

Did you conduct a send/receive? How are you sorting your in-box?
