No. It's been a request for some time. You need a recursive handler that
adds every subfolder (of every subfolder of every subfolder...) to a
cumulative list. You have to remember also to get every folder of each IMAP,
Hotmail and Exchange account as well and use it there.
Please request this formally; either 'folder hierarchy' or else some use of
the term 'folder' that doesn't force 'top-level' meaning so can get all
folders to begin with, and enable 'whose clauses' as well.

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - **2004**, X
or 2001. It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise.
