Greetings,

I'm trying to create a search folder looking for emails sent FROM anyone in a certain distro list, which has distro lists. My initial attempts worked only for the people inside the distro list that were not further nested. It ignored any of the people inside the nested distros.

Are there other tricks, possibly using Query Builder or others?

Thank you,
Matthew
 
Interesting weirdness: If i use New Search Folder and "Mail from specific people" and choose a distribution list, it behaves as I described where it will only show emails from people who are in the distribution list but not in nested distribution lists.

However, if I choose New Search Folder and "Create a custom Search Folder" and choose the same distribution list as FROM, I get nothing.
