You either have a PST file or an Exchange mailbox. Both would work the same,
neither can search across mail stores. A search folder in an Exchange
mailbox can only search in that mailbox. In a PST a search folder can only
search in that PST.

I'm not sure I understand your response. My wife posted this issue. It
is
my desktop computer, running Outlook 2003 that is working correctly. Her
laptop (and a co-worker) is having the problem. But now that you
mentioned
the PST file, it brings up a point. I know I have a PST file. I don't
know
if she does.

If she is configured differently and does NOT have a PST file, will hers
work the same?
