Need to find an important message in your crowded inbox or folder? Maybe you remember who sent it, or a word or phrase it contains. But who wants to scroll through pages of mail, looking for that message? Use Instant Search to find it quickly.
1. Find the search box, which will be located at the top-right corner of your application and click in it.
2. A new tab will open automatically called Search.
From here, you have numerous options that you can use for narrowing down your search. You can choose which folder you want to search from by clicking the Current Folder or Subfolders button, and then you can search by sender’s name by clicking the From button or by flags such as Received or Date Sent by clicking the respective buttons.
3. To stop the search and close the search tab, click the Close button.
Tip: You can click the Save Search button which will automatically create a Smart Folder, and will allow any incoming email or messages meeting that criteria to be filtered and relocated to that folder from now on.
For the most current information on how to search your inbox and messages, please refer to the following Microsoft support article: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/find-items-by-doing-a-basic-search-in-outlook-for-mac-53b60f65-25b7-4582-9c5e-4adf16e503a1
