Search method | Syntax | Example and more details |
---|---|---|

AND operator search | Use the AND operator between two search terms to find items that contain both search terms. | cloud AND computing finds archived messages with both of the search terms cloud and computing. |
OR operator search | Use the OR operator between two search terms to find items that contain at least one of the search terms. | cloud OR computing finds archived messages with the search term cloud, or the search term computing, or both terms. |
NOT operator search | Use the NOT operator between search terms to exclude specific search terms. | cloud NOT computing finds archived messages with the search term cloud but not the search term computing. |
Single character wildcard search | Use a question mark at the end of a search term to represent a single unspecified character. Note: You must enter a search term with at least three characters before the wildcard character. | appl? finds archived messages with search terms such as apple or apply. See Wildcard searches. |
Multiple character wildcard search | Use an asterisk at the end of a search term to represent one or more unspecified characters. Note: You must enter a search term with at least three characters before the wildcard character. | comp* finds archived messages with search terms such as computing, computer, or company. See Wildcard searches. |
Proximity search | Place quotation marks around two search terms, followed by a tilde and a numerical value to indicate the maximum word count between them. Note: Personal.cloud limits the word count between the 2 search terms to under 50 words. | "cloud computing"~5 finds archived messages with the search terms cloud and computing within five words of each other. See Proximity searches. |

Searches are not case-sensitive. Capitalizing a search term has no effect on the search results. Invalid search terms are shown in red; hover over invalid search terms to get additional help via Tool Tip.
