A common problem with e-Mail addiction is that they may return too many results. For example by typing someone's name may return matches where appears the name in parts of the body of the message, even though you should search for messages from that person. There may be other criteria to narrow help enter your search how hard, whether it has an attachment or that a certain category has applied. It would not be great, if you simply specify this parameter and get a better results - find what you want, or faster? Outlook 2010 makes it easier!
Outlook 2010 helps your mailbox searching more efficiently with two new features: search search contextual tab in the Ribbon and the suggestion list.
Contextual search tab
The contextual search tab is displayed every time that you click in the search box. It allows you, your search results with a variety of parameters, including filter:
· The sender name
Subject keywords ·
· Presence of attachments
· Categories
· Sent date
· Flagged messages
· The name of the recipient in the to or CC
· Importance
Read/unread status ·
•... and much more!
You can use this tab so that you can quickly and easily find news. For example, suppose you are looking after a message with the phrase "Food Blog", but more than 100 elements return the search query. Let's assume that you also remind you that this message has an attachment. Now you can limit immediately, to find the results to a much smaller what you seek, by clicking the attachments in the contextual tab set search:
And this is just one of the many filters in search contextual tab available!
Search suggestion list
A combination of keywords, along with the name of the sender or a well-known phrase in the subject line contain the vast majority of the search. Restrict the results to a specific sender is a powerful filter which helps often quickly narrow down results.
If you start a query, you see a list below the search field to Outlook 2010. You can just type and then Arrorw after the search to e-Mail from a person or to a specific topic below limited. The results returned are only those who show a match in the name (or subject) against your query!
This is just a taste of the new powerful search capabilities integrated into Outlook 2010. We hope you enjoy this new experience and that it helps you more productive every time you will need to find a message in your mailbox.
