Hi all,
Well, when I did my search this morning, I interacted with the search text area 
in the toolbar and typed in my search. I stopped interacting. When I Erold 
around, I didn't see any choices to limit the search, such as to, from, etc. I 
am familiar with the table where the messages show up, but how do I find those 
limiting items such as subject etc.
