I can report a rather weird aspect to this caching. Before caching, a first
Advanced Find of Sent Items folder for a particular Group will not find
anything by the Group name, nor for any recipient except the first one in
the group list. But if you search on "other", as in "Joe Blow and 15 other
recipients", you get every every message sent to any group, all listed in
that way "So-and-so and 23 other recipients."

Then if you do another Advanced Find on _any_ member of any group you get
all the sent messages for just the group(s) of which that person is a
member, now all listed with _all_ the recipient names. And if you try a
search for "other", you now get nothing at all. It's very fast.

Entourage has now read all the "Joe Blow and 15 other recipients" and stored
the real results, and can no longer track "other"! . I've just checked: even
when I quit Entourage and re-open it, the real group members can be found in
group messages, and "other" doesn't work. So the caching must last until the
next computer restart.  There an "Entourage Preferences" file, and an
"Office Component" file in the Microsoft folder in Preferences folder in
System folder, last modifies a few minutes ago. One or the other may be
where this is stored, I imagine.
