Using Message Finders

A message finder is a separate window that works in the same way as a filter to find messages that meet a particular set of criteria. When set up, a finder can run continuously, alerting you when matching messages arrive. The selection criteria for finding messages are the same as for filtering messages.

To view a message finder window

  1. From the Tools menu, click Find.
  2. Specify the criteria you want to use to find messages. Click Advanced to find messages according to its size, date, importance, or sensitivity.

Note You can add OLE fields to the columns you want to view, or you can sort, filter, and search on these fields (in addition to the normal messaging properties). For more information about OLE in Windows 95, see Chapter 22, "Application Support."
