Search your mail
Find emails across one mailbox or all of them, with search operators.
Search finds email in the mailbox you are viewing, or in every mailbox in All inboxes.
Search
Select the search field, or press ⌘ K (Ctrl K on Windows) or /. Results appear as you type, together with people you have emailed. Press Enter to open all results, including older mail Mira has not loaded yet.
Mira also offers to answer your search from your email. When it reads like a question, such as "When is the dentist appointment?", that option comes first. See Ask Mira.
Search operators
Add operators to narrow the results. You can combine them with words, like from:alice invoice.
| Operator | Finds |
|---|---|
from: | Email from a sender, like from:alice |
to: | Email to a recipient, like to:team@example.com |
subject: | Words in the subject, like subject:"weekly report" |
has:attachment | Only conversations with attachments |
is:unread | Only unread conversations |
in:anywhere | Includes Spam and Trash |
in: | Email in one of your labels or folders, like in:receipts or in:"action needed" |
is:unread and in:anywhere work in Gmail and Outlook mailboxes. Mailboxes connected with Other email support the first four, and in: with your folders.
Searching without in: covers your own labels and folders too.
Filter results
On the results page, use the filters to show only Unread, Starred, Has attachment or From me conversations.
