Default My follow up folder has disappeared after one use.

Thanks for the reply. Obviously my problem as a new user is unfamiliarity
with what a search folder is used for or why it is so desingated -- which
sort of illustrates my problem with OUTLOOK. So many things are new... (to
me) -- the learning curve looks very long to someone who does mainly word
processing and needs simple quick answers. But thanks anyway. -- Jack =

I'm using Outlook that came in the Office Pro 2003 package.

I used the FOLLOW UP search folder in the "Favorites" window... to
hold one message... 24 hours later I handled that matter... and took
the message away to file in a place where I can find it... the folder
also disappeared.

Next I tried to replace the folder by creating a new one... now (next
day) no follow-up folder.

Help is complex -- takes too long (for me) more demos would be
helpful.


"Follow Up" was likely in your Search Folders - and you can very easily
recreate it, by right-clicking on Search Folders and selecting the "flagged
for followup" option.

It doesn't "hold" a message, tho - no search folder does; they're just
filtered views, really.
