I like the third way ( to find all messages from sender. Thanks Jim -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Linda F. Johnson Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 7:25 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Outlook FIND in FROM field question Hi Jim....three ways you can do this....one way is to go to the Tools menu and choose Advanced Find and search on the "From" field in there, like Dian said. Another way...within any folder, is to find one message from "Linda" and click on it to select it, then click on the gray column heading in that list that says "From" and the messages will be sorted by that field and all the "Linda"s will be in one lump Or, another way is to RIGHT click on a message from "Linda" and choose Find All>Messages From Sender....which is what I do, since I'm a major right clicker :-) Linda Publisher ~ ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers Owner ~ Linda's Computer Stop http://personal-computer-tutor.com FREE MS Office eBook Tutorial http://personal-computer-tutor.com/library.htm -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of James Chapman Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 12:43 AM To: MSO-LIST Subject: [mso] Outlook FIND in FROM field question Sometimes I want to gather in one view all of those messages that reside in my MSO-IN folder that are coming from (posted by) say "Linda". If I do a FIND on "Linda" I frequently get nothing (unless) "Linda" appears in the SUBJECT field. I have a clue as to why that happens. What I see in my FROM field is not actually "Linda". It is Linda's indicator name and does not actually appear in the FROM address field. It is something constructed by the mail list software. What is actually in the field is the mail list server address. Is this correct? My question is, How do I find messages posted by Linda using the Outlook FIND?
