I used ctrl-shift-F to search for messages in my archive that had a similar subject line. Once I found these messages, I used 'save as search folder' to keep those messages in one place. Now I want to delete that search folder, but will that mean I delete the message from the archive if I do?

thanks,

You can safely delete a Saved Search folder. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Saved_Search#Deleting_a_Saved_Search_folder
