Cause

The query using the From/To drop down does not include CC or BCC fields.

  • The FROM search only searches the From field.
  • The TO search includes the TOCC and BCC fields
  • The From/To drop down only searches the From field and the To field.
    • It does NOT search the CC or BCC fields.

 

Resolution

To generate list of all addresses that include From, To CC and BCC, ensure that both the From and To items are added separately.

Issue/Introduction

When using Alta eDiscovery's search, the user is not presented the expected number of results as they are filtered. Initially, content is sorted by the From drop down and the program displays 0 results. If the filter is changed to the To drop down the program returns 20 results. (that are CC'd and BCC'd) If the filter is then changed to the From / To a user would expect 20 results, but the program returns 0. (Not including CC'd and BCC'd)
