Question [SOLVED] Way to negate in search language?

Guys,

I love the web client's Find: dialog capabilities. However, I find that I really need to negate searches very often and am curious if there's a way.

For example, I have many, many email folders. If I wanted to find an email from a particular address that was NOT in my Inbox (i.e., in another folder), I'd like to do something like:

from:soandso@so.com !in:inbox

Using the "!" to negate. I tried it on a long shot to see if it might work, but it does not. Is there a way?

Thanks!
