FAQ - Searching within a particular folder

Posted July 1st, 2008 at 8:07 am.

To limit your search results to the contents of a particular folder, put your search word or words in the search field, then type in:foldername.  For example, if I wanted to find all messages in my inbox containing the word project, then what I would type in the search field is:

project in:inbox

This can be combined with our tip about fining unread or tagged messages.  For example, to find all unread messages in inbox, you would type:

is: unread in:inbox
