    WLM - some mail can only be found by "Search" ,disappear from fold

    A friend sent me a mail to my hotmail ,after i read it from "unread" folder,
    it became "read" and just disappear!

    i cant find this mail again from any folder in WLM, such as
    "all inbox","hotmail","inbox",but i can find this mail by searching the
    subject from the "all mail " folder,which contains thousands of mails without
    partition.

    Why this happen? what if i can't remember the subject of the mail?



    Can anybody help ?

    Make sure you have View > Current view > Show all messages selected
    on all of the folders you're looking in.

    I thought I am the only one who ever faced this problem ! even for myself- I
    read a mail from unread mails, and lo ! the mail simply vanishes ! I just
    cant find that. I access my account through browser, and find its very much
    there.
