Thanks fo the quick reply.

Google's "Advanced Search" is what I prefer to use.

If you are using Outlook Express:

Edit, Find, Message..., (enter the text of the parameter you are hoping to find i.e. From, To, Subject, Message).

If you think it has been within the last week, click the box beside Received after, and then the drop down box, and click on the date one row up. The Subject is the title of the message; if in the Message field it searches in the text of the bodies of all of the messages in that group(s). Find next may be useful for subsequent occurences of the same text, such as within a large document using a word processing program such as MS Word. I cannot seem to add to the names of the groups to search in the Look In field, which may be done with a comma, or other manner, such as when posting a message to several groups from within OE.
