how to?: change which folders are searched in find related context menu

[alex]

Hello,

When you right click on a message and do "find all"->"related messages"
or "find all"->"from user", you're basically just starting up an
advanced search with some preselected options. One of the preselects
is which folders outlook does the search in.

How do I change this ? and/or add my own searches?
(basically, i'd like to search in inbox and all subfolders)

Many Thanks,
Alex

PS: cross posting....let me know if there's an appropriate group for
this sorta question.

There is not an option to extend that list. What you can do is create your
conditions in Advanced Find and store that query by File-> Save Search or
even as a Search Folder for Outlook 2003
