Search/Sending Acc/Storage Folders

Hi
Using WLM in Vista Home Basic, and have 4 questions

1. How can I search for emails across accounts?

2. I have set up 4 different accounts. When I use "Send To" from an
application, sometimes it uses my default acc, and sometimes it uses another
one. Its quite randomly chosen. How can I force it to use only my default
acc, and I be the one to change to the acc I want?

3. What is the diff between Storage Folders and Folders within an acc? Any
particular use for it?

4. My MS Excel 2003 does not have a "Send To" in the File menu. How can I
get it?

Use the "Find a message" wordwheel and select All mail.
I can't reproduce this, using Office 2003 on XP. It seems always to select
the default account. You are sure it's a WLMail compose window that appears
when you select File > Send to > Mail recipient... ?
Depends on the type of account. If it's POP3, then not much.
Storage folders have, as far as I can see, four functions.
(i) Sent, Draft and Deleted folders for newsgroup posts; newsgroup accounts
don't have their own.
(ii) Folders to accommodate migrated messages (eg. ones that the installer
finds in Outlook Express or Windows Mail during the installation process) or
imported messages
(iii) Temporary accommodation for "lost" messages - eg. ones that have been
received but not indexed and recorded in the database file because of some
glitch. These "recovered" items will usually find their way into the correct
folder, leaving an empty "Recovered items" folder behind under Storage
folders. At the moment, these empty folders should not be deleted because of
the problems this causes with Quick views.
(iv) As local storage for messages received and sent on HTTP or IMAP
accounts. These accounts synchronize, ie. what's on the server mirrors
what's in your local account folders. If you want to delete a message from
the server but keep a copy within WLMail locally, you can only achieve this
by moving the message to a folder under Storage folders.
If Tools > Customize doesn't help, you'd better ask in an Excel forum.

This used to happen if a third-party mail client was installed and hijacked
the messaging settings, but I can't help you with Vista.
