MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / July 2007search mail folders outlook 2007
How do I search all the mail folders at once in outlook 2007? There is an instant search, but it does not work. I want to find all of the emails that are from helpdesk@harvey industries.com, so I put "helpdesk" in the from box on instant serach, and there are no matching records. I want to go to personal folders, search all of the emails in all of the mail folders at once, because my emails, even from the same sender, are scattered through the different email folders. There should just be a "find" button with a checkbox to include subfolders, but I cannot locate it. Are you choosing to search All Mail Folders? How longhops Outlook been installed and on what operating system? it can take some time for a full Index to be built.

Using Windows Vista Premium for about a month or so. It is disconcerting. I can be looking at at email, search for it, and cannot find it. I don't understand this indexing, I just want to be able to find emails. Outlook 2003 was very easy to use in this regard. But are you choosing to "Search All Mail Items"? Use the drop down arrow.

"search all mail items" is also permanently in the search box. > But are you choosing to "Search All Mail Items"?

You could try going into Advanced in Indexing in Control Panel and rebuild the index. Also check what is being indexed from Outlook there.

I checked of some additional locations to include and chose rebuid.

I needed to choose other drives to index. I did a bunch of stuff, but I think that was it. Thanks for your help. > only the locations you choose to index > [quoted text clipped - 54 lines] > >> > > >> > Is there a way to "force" indexing or search email in a different way? |
