my desktop outlook (outlook 2010 from ms office 2010) has 8 email accounts--6 are gmail but 2 outlook based (1 through a school account).
when i use these email accounts on the web, my data use is normal, no huge data use.
there are no video ads to play with. it is regular email--a lot of email but the new email that downloads is not anywhere near 10gb. the emails in my folders do total more than 10gb but not the new ones that come in while i am using the program.
i have used the f9 key in outlook which synchronizes all email. i had assumed that this merely updated for new emails but i'm now seeing that other people have had this problem with outlook desktop (outside of the verizon tethering context). eg high data usage with Outlook 365/2013 - Microsoft Community
