When searching a property, use double quotation marks (' ') if the search value consists of multiple words.Prefix wildcard searches (*cat) or substring wildcard searches (*cat*) aren’t supported. You can use only suffix wildcard searches-for example, cat* or set*. When searching a recipient property, such as To, From, Cc, or Recipients, you can use an SMTP address, alias, or display name to denote a recipient.

For example, from:'Jerri Frye'subject:reorganization returns all messages sent by Jerri Frye that contain the word reorganization in the subject line. A space between two keywords or two property:value expressions is the same as using AND.To search for messages sent to JerriFrye, enter to:JerriFrye. For example, to: JerriFrye searches for 'JerriFrye' as a keyword, rather than for messages that were sent to JerriFrye. If there is a space, your intended value will just be full-text searched. When searching on a property:value expression, don't put a space after the colon.For example, cat and CAT return the same results. Keyword searches are not case sensitive.Use these tips and tricks to define more precise searches: For example, blue hasattachment:yes returns only emails containing the word 'blue' that include attachments.Ī search for Attachment name or file type.Ī search for HasAttachment:no returns only emails without attachments.Ī search for IsFlagged:yes returns only emails that are flagged.Ī search for IsFlagged:no returns only emails that are not flagged.
