I think there are two unrelated things here:
1. an issue with your Outlook messages
2. an issue with "full disk access" permission
Maybe you removed "full disk access" permission in an attempt to fix issue 1, or when re-installing FoxTrot. If you grant this permission again, then quit FoxTrot, make sure its background processes are also stopped (you can check with Activity Monitor, or reboot your Mac to be really sure), then relaunch it, this message should not appear again (except possibly for the /var/private folders, on macOS 11.4, if you are not using FoxTrot 7.1b1). Or do you confirm that this message appears again and again?
Which version of FoxTrot are you using? There was an issue with .eml messages on macOS 11.x, that was fixed in FoxTrot 7.0.4. However, I think Outlook's messages have a .olk15Message filename extension, rigth?
You can check which metadata importers are found on your Mac by pasting the following command in a Terminal.app window:
Does "Microsoft Outlook Spotlight Importer.mdimporter" appears in the result? If not, I think that launching Outlook should fix the issue.
Can you find your Outlook messages using Spotlight?
You certainly did not do this, but it is also possible to disable some third party metadata importers in FoxTrot, by pressing the command and option keys when launching FoxTrot, and checking "manage third-party Spotlight importers".
