How do I search for EXACT PHRASES, when searching my Outlook emails?

S

Hi

Is there any way to get the Advanced Search function
in msOutlook (2002) to search for phrases?!

e.g. If I search for the phrase
strongly recommend
in "Subject and message body", it then lists all emails
all emails containing the word "strongly" AND all emails
containing the word "recommend".

Wearas I just want it to filter on emails containing the
exact phrase "strongly recommend"!

And fwiw, searching for the phrase in quotes ie
"strongly recommend"
is no better!

-Any suggestions?

P.S. How come msOutlook's searching is so USELESS!
I can search billions and billions of page through google, but I cant
find my own emails!!! There has to be a way but whatever it is
it is highly counter-intuitive
