Is it normal behaviour in searching outlook items?

[Surinder Singh]

I am using MS office 2007 SP1 and I have seen some strange behaviour (atleast
for me) while searching in outllok items.

Search does not seem to work properly.

1. Click on INBOX or any other folder and press F3 to search any value that
exists in your inbox folder.
2. You will see the results.
3. Again type in search textbox the same value and hit enter key, this time
you will see no results.
4. If you are getting results again in step 3 then again do this step, You
will see that search will not show you any results.
5. Then again click on any other folder or open any email item and again go
to INBOX folder and try to search that value again. this time you will be
able to search it again.

And don't abuse the suggestion feature for general issues.

It means that you used the "Suggestion for Microsoft" button while you
didn't make any suggestion but only described your issue.

Don't do that, or the feature might go away in the future making it more
difficult for end-users to offer a suggestion to Microsoft which can be
discussed and voted on by other end-users.
