Is there a quick way to search for all the messages from one person?

From Topica's tip of the day for Outlook 2000 for September 7, 2000...

There are a couple of ways to group all messages from one person together, whether you are looking for a specific email message or want to organize your folders by, say, moving all the appropriate messages into one folder.

Select a message from the person you are looking for messages from--say, your boss. Select Actions, Find All, Messages From Sender. You will get a list of every message from that person.

But there's an even quicker way to do it. Simply click on the From column heading. If you have an email from the person currently selected, you will see all the messages grouped together; if you don't simply type the first few characters of the person's name. Outlook will automatically jump to the group of messages from that person.
