Hi Dan, I'm in Entourage 2001 and just tried this search using Advanced Find with no problem using the following criteria: "Any To Recipient" contains "domainprovider.com". It also worked using "@domainprovider.com". If you tried it this way and it didn't work, perhaps you have some mild database corruption and need to do a rebuild?
