Finding Email

[Willy]

In OE6 you could go to a Folder, click F3 and get a Find dialog box to enter
a word(s) and find an Email that contained it. How do I do it in Windows
Mail, F3 function as in OE6 don't work?

In WinMail... see that little box in the upper right, that has the word
"Search" in it?

Ctrl-Shift-F also works.

I miss the F3 also. Am so used to using it for so many things that I keep
forgetting and try to use it.

I'm used to Outlook, where you can search all folders by wildcard on subject,
or body text, and also by sender or recipient (selecting them from your
Address Book or typing them in). I was very surprised to find that my
Windows Contacts aren't available for the From and To boxes in the Search
dialogue, so I have to actually type them in. Is this as designed, or do I
need to create a link somehow?
