Searching in WebMail
You will find the search bar on the right side of the client, above the list of emails. Click the magnifying glass icon to open the search menu.
The default search looks through the current folder and searches only the email subject and the sender’s name or address.
You can also set the following here:
- Search locations. You can also search the names or addresses of the recipient, the Cc recipient, or the Bcc recipient. You can also search the message body or the entire message, but if you have a large number of emails in your mailbox, this can slow down the search considerably.
- Date. You can limit the search by date to messages newer than a week, newer than a month, newer than a year, older than a week, older than a month, or older than a year.
- Scope. You can search in the current folder, in the current folder with its subfolders (for example, the folders of received mail), or in all folders, including the trash and spam. If you have a large number of emails in your mailbox, searching all folders can slow down the search considerably.
