ms-office-communicator

I am running Office Communicator 2007 R2 and Outlook 2010 on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. I am storing my conversation history from Communicator in Exchange in the default folder, "Conversation History". I'm using the conversation view in Outlook. And I have a Gmail-like macro to archive my conversations to an "Archive" folder.

I want to search all my mail and conversations at once. By default, Outlook is searching in the current folder only.

I tried creating a rule to move the conversations to my Archive folder, but couldn't configure it correctly.
