Screwup in Outlook 2003 advance search

J

John Doe

Whenever you are doing an advance search in Outlook 2003 instead of searching
the entire mailbox as it was done in previous versions of outlook, Outlook
2003 was reconfigured to only search the current folder you are in.
This means that after you select the advance search you have to go back and
select the mailbox which is a pain in the neck and non added value activity.

Sorry - user error. Select the Browse button to select your folder and then
check the box that says "include subfolders."

Next!
