The bug was added to the problem list by the JDK-8255365, because SQE reported it on Ubuntu in jdk15. This looks strange since the tag "@requires" was added in jdk9.

BTW the bug filed JDK-8080185 is unrelated to the macOS and Linux, it is about removing the outlook requirement for test execution on windows(this may allow it to be run on other platforms)
