How can I exclude terms from my search results?

How can I perform a proximity search?

To perform a proximity search, place two search terms inside quotation marks, followed with a tilde and a numerical value. The numerical value you enter indicates the maximum number of words that can separate the two search terms.

How can I search within specific email domains?

One way to search for items within a specific domain is to enter the domain name into the To field of Advanced Search.
