SYMPTOMS
========

Nested folders that are more than 6 levels deep cannot be displayed in the
dialog boxes containing folder lists. However, you can still select the folder.

CAUSE
=====

Viewers that show folder lists are equipped with "Vertical" scroll bars, but not
with "Horizontal" scroll bars. When you use deeply nested folder lists, you
cannot manipulate these viewers to see more of the tree structure. The following
dialog boxes exhibit this problem:

  New Folder - Options
  Folder Properties
  Copy Folder
  Move Folder
  Message Finder - Where to Search

MORE INFORMATION
================

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
