Your query works for me. It's just that Gmail only shows 50 items per page and displays the most recent items first, so you need to page through for the older results. (Where it says "1-50 of many" near the top right.)
Note by default it doesn't include the Spam or Trash folders, in case that's important to you. You can change which folders it searches using the "Advanced search" link Deborah -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries <CODE4LIB@LISTS.CLIR.ORG> On Behalf Of charles meyer Sent: Sunday, 28 May 2023 2:01 pm To: CODE4LIB@LISTS.CLIR.ORG Subject: [CODE4LIB] Searching older gmails for attachments Caution: This email originated from outside our organisation. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. My esteemed listmates, I'd like to search for all emails with attachments since Jan 1, 2010 through May 25, 2023 In the Isearch " field" above all the most recently received Inbox messages it was suggested I type in the following after:01/01/2010 before: 25/05/2023 has:attachment but that just returns the past month's messages with attachments, not ones from 2010, 2011, etc. How have you searched for older emails with attachments in gmail?
