RE: email search

Hi Marcin,

When using the OWA and Outlook installed app, the installed app has greater search control.

Please could you try using the desktop version to see if that makes the searches faster/better.

I can then point you to some tips for saving searches if you use the same search frequently.

If you are looking in older emails - pre-migration to 365 they will not have the same indexing, it will be harder to find key words.


Kind regards
