Default zimbra mailbox - search by folder name

I have got several folders inside my inbox folder. is it possible to search by folder name?
for example, I have folder called "important" inside "work" folder, which is inside my "inbox" folder. I wanna type "important" and get all the messages inside "important" folder listed.

The Power of Search Part 1: The Search Bar » Zimbra :: Blog
"The “in” command is for specifying the location of messages. For example, if you keep a folder only with business information named “biz stuff”, and you know the message you wish to find is located in this folder, you can specify “in:biz stuff“. This will only search the “biz stuff” folder."
it works only if I create _global_ "important" folder. I mean not inside inbox. i must have inbox,sent,outgoing.. etc _and_ "important" folder. then it works, but it doesn't suit me. thanx.

yes, it works great! ) but it it not the thing I want. what if i don't know where the folder "important" situated? in your case, i can simply click on "important" folder. but I am talking about folder search, for example, if I have no idea, where to find my folder, but I have to find it (an messages, of course).
users have too much folders inbox, I think )) but what can i do ))

I appreciate you help, thank you!

I do not think you can do it I have also tried using the under:{folder} option and that does not go down all levels. Please check Bugzilla Main Page to see if somebody has reported it otherwise file a RFE.
