I also think the bug was raised by internal SQE when it was thought that the test could be run on multiple platforms but
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/d8efcad28072
made sure it can be run only for windows (although fix not done fully). So, I think we should just add @requires in the html file and not put much stress on removing Outlook requirement.
