If you are on your inbox, then it will search emails on your inbox only. YOu have to click on user's inbox under his/her mailbox and do a search.

Jaynir,
I have done that but it defaults to my mailbox.

In Outlook
Go to Tools>Instant Search>Search Options
Under Instant Search Pane
Change it from: "ALL FOLDERS" to "Only the currently Selected Folder"
Then you can go to
Open>Other Users Folder>Inbox
Enter Users name to bring up their inbox
Once loaded, you should then be able to search it.

Thanks, that seems to be working but the only problem is. I have to do the search on every folder individuality. Is that the only way or could I search the entire mail box one time.
Click on Mailbox for the user, and do a search.
