Locate a mail folder in hierarchy

I'm use to Thunderbird (TB), where the mail folder tree is
implemented
as a file folder tree outside of the mail reader app. In outlook, I
created a mail folder "Subject1" and put into it messages related to
Subject1. Obviously, I didn't put it where I thought I did; it was
nowhere to be found when I ran into more Subject1 messages later on
in
my Inbox cleaning. In TB, I can use the file search to look for
where
the Subject1 folder resides in my hierarchy. I can't do that in
Outlook. Is there a good alternative?

Using Outlook's advanced search, I found some good subject-line
phrases that located messages in the Subject1 folder. I still didn't
know where in my mail folder hierarchy it resided. Is there a way to
find out where the mail folder resides in the hierarchy from the
messages in the mail folder?


I am using Office 2003

P.S. Why are there two groups, "microsoft.public.outlook" and
"microsoft.public.outlook.general"?
