OK.  I have a hint on why it is not working.  In H3/IMP4, there were 4  
fields for searching already listed (From, To, Subject and Body) and  
Text area already displayed.  Where as in IMP 5, the field name and  
Text area for giving input gets populated based on your choice  
dynamically.   So, Either I need to save the search or type it  
completely everytime.  Some of my users who are testing are not happy  
with this.

Regards,
ANANT.
