Searching for Specific Messages
You can search mail folders or newsgroups for specific messages. If you
are not already viewing the Search Messages dialog box, begin from the
Mail window:
1. Open the Tools menu and choose Search Messages. You see the
Search Messages dialog box.
2. Next to Search for messages in, choose the account, newsgroup,
or folder through which you want to search.
3. Select Search subfolders to include all subfolders in the
search.
4. Select Search local system to search only messages from
newsgroups or IMAP accounts that have been saved locally.
Note: The checkbox will be disabled if it's not
possible to search remotely stored messages.
5. Select which matching option Mail & Newsgroups will use to
search for messages that match all or at least one of the conditions
(criteria) that you choose.
6. Use the drop-down lists to indicate the search criteria (for
example, Subject and contains) and then type the text or phrase that
you want to match.
