Hi,

As per the information and details provided by you, I think you want default search folder in outlook 2010.

In Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010 these three are the Default Search Folders: -

    The Categorized Mail Folder
    The For Follow Up Folder
    The Large Mail Folder

You can also add many Search Folder as you want.

    Click on Search Folder and then choose New Search Folder.

In the New Search Folder dialog box, you can choose from a variety of present folders or you can also create your own folder.

Correct me if the information that I am having is wrong.

Thanks and regards

Hi there,

I joined a new company and we use Exchange 2010 SP3 UR6 with Outlook 2010. All users are using Online-Mode, nothing cached. Nobody has the default search folders. I ran outlook with /cleanfinders /resetfolders, nothing.

It's not vital of course, but I'm still wondering how that can be. New and old mailboxes only have the "root" Search Folder. Left click on it does nothing (is this normal? From my memory I don't think so), right click offers to create a new one...

Cheers

Hi,

Your administrator can specify whether to create the standard default Search Folders when Outlook starts for the first time by using group policy. See:

Please contact your administrator and confirm if he has applied the policy. For your reference:

Note: This article is for Outlook 2007, it also applies to Outlook 2010.

-> Left click on it does nothing (is this normal? From my memory I don't think so), right click offers to create a new one...

This is the default behavior, we need to use right click > New Search Folder to create new search folders.

Hope this helps.
