2. Open the Advanced Find feature via the keyboard shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+F
3. The “Look in” field will reveal the folder name to you and clicking on the Browse… button will show you where in that is exactly in your folder hierarchy.

Via Advanced Find, you can determine the exact folder path of an opened message.
