Search your email

The search box at the top of the Mail view lets you find emails in seconds — no matter which folder they're in. Type a word or a phrase, and we show the matches as you type.

How to search

1. Click the search box at the top of Mail (or press / to jump straight there)
2. Type what you're looking for — it can be a name, an email address, words from the subject, words from the content, or part of a link

Search looks in:

• Sender (name and email address)
• Recipient
• Subject
• Body text
• Attachment name

Matches update as you type.

Recent searches

When you click the search box without typing anything, we show a list of your recent searches, so you can quickly repeat an earlier one.

Want to clear the history? Click Clear next to the heading.

Search operators

For more precise searches, you can use operators. Click Operators in the search box to see a list of everything that's supported — here are some common examples:

Example	What it does
from:per@onmeil.eu	Only email from this sender
to:lisa@onmeil.eu	Only email sent to this recipient
subject:faktura	Only email with "faktura" in the subject
has:attachment	Only email with attachments
from:per faktura	Combine several — from Per AND containing the word "faktura"

Tips

• Clear the search with the × icon in the box, or press Escape
• Jump to search from anywhere in Mail with the / shortcut
• Search across all folders — search looks in inbox, sent, archive, and so on at the same time
• Use quotation marks to search for an exact phrase: "prosjekt Alfa"
