I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive tool that supports full Boolean
searches of .PST files and/or the Microsoft Exchange Server information
store. I only need to search one Exchange mailbox at a time. Ideally, the
tool would allow me to define a date range, some parameters like "to" and
"from," and then a complex sequence of parameters with Boolean operators,
such as "(a OR b) AND (c OR d OR e)." Does such a tool exist?

Thanks,
John

You've looked at Copernic ?

thanks for your response... what i'm looking for is to take a large pst and
search by date and create a new pst from there.

Well Copernic will search by date, on the pst, but I dont think that will
help since you wont be able to 'tag' the emails within OL in order to copy
them to your new pst.
You may be able to use a rule within OL to move appropriate msgs to a new
pst (Having created the new pst first)

outlook can do fairly decent date searches, especially with query builder
enabled.
