If you have Windows Search installed on XP, or if you're using Vista, you can use Windows Search to look for outlook messages by subject or by contents. This might save you from having to inspect large lists of items, looking for specific ones.

Insert-page down will tell you how many messages are in each folder. Hope this helps. Cheers.

When, after sorting the messages by "from" to more easily facilitate my search, Outlook "hiccupped", crashed and I had to close. On opening Outlook, I can't do the little insert-right-arrow thing to get the number of messages in each folder. Where would you look to fix that?
