When I used to search in a Folder for an item I could just put the first part of a subject line and a list would come up immediately with emails that matched that criteria and now it comes up with a list of email addresses which is not what the search button ever did.

I have no idea why it has changed from how it worked for 17 years.

Have found it now although, the menu on the right by search does not make sense under find. However, I have it working properly now after playing around in there. Very unintuitive menu as, the the top two options under Find were greyed out and no indication that you could click on them, which I'm sure that I had tried before, but after days of getting lists of emails "I'm happy to be back on track." Sounds like a Huey Lewis track lol.
