Hi!
Thanks for replying but I have not installed any filters and in the indexing
options I have only my pst files and a couple of local folders --> not on the
network. That’s all!
And what about the duplicated emails? When you move an incoming message from
your inbox to a folder and you search for it, do you only get a result in the
folder you have moved it to or you also get it in your inbox like I do?
Not to mention that there is no way to convenient isolate the results by
file type, as it was the case with WDS for XP, where with just one click you
could only find doc, contacts, xls attachments etc!!
It would have been fine if I hadn’t worked with WDS, which was just perfect!!!
Regards,
Christos
