Earlier in this thread, Rasmus suggested “Perhaps it should be a defcustom?”
With a new version (2016) of Microsoft Outlook for Mac that does not
install inside of a "Microsoft Office 2011" directory, this indeed should
be a defcustom.
This patch accomplishes that change. (It also changes the default to
/Applications/Microsoft Outlook.app which is the filesystem path of Outlook
2016.
