Guest MATT Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 "I have Windows XP SP2 and Outlook 2007 with Exchange Server 2003 I downloaded and installed Windows Desktop Search 3.01. When I search for a message in Outlook, I only get "No Matches Found For...", even if a search for a message that I'm looking right at. I have tried uninstalling/re-installing the WDS. In Outlook, under Tools - Options - Search Options under Index Messages in these Data Files, I have "Mailbox - My Mailbox" checked. Desktop Search works when searching regular files, but no matter what i do, what i search for, i get no results when searching for messages in Outlook.
Guest ChrisWaddington Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 RE: Windows Desktop Search not finding Outlook Messages I have exactly the same problem but I'm running Outlook 2002 with Exchange Server. It used to work fine with an old version of WDS but since I have updated, it now no longer finds anything from Outlook except very old emails that have been archived.

Guest ChrisWaddington Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 RE: Windows Desktop Search not finding Outlook Messages I have justed installed the Windows Live Toolbar to see if that works. It doesn't. I can see it in Outlook but when I search for an email i received 10 minues ago, it says it can't find anything. Anyone got any Ideas?

Guest MATT Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 RE: Windows Desktop Search not finding Outlook Messages Hey, I actually figure this out - at least for me. The problem i found was happening when I had Exchange System Management tools installed. Apparently it changes the MAPI. If you run \system32\fixmapi.exe, it should fix the problem... at least it did for me. "ChrisWaddington" wrote: > I have justed installed the Windows Live Toolbar to see if that works. It > doesn't.

Guest ChrisWaddington Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 RE: Windows Desktop Search not finding Outlook Messages Hi Matt great to hear that you got yours up and running. I tried fixmapi.exe but still no joy I'm afraid. If anyone has any ideas, I really would appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Chris "MATT" wrote: > Hey, I actually figure this out - at least for me.
