Tech Tip: Outlook Search Folders

It can get pretty tiring scrolling through hundreds of emails and picking out the one that you’re looking for. And what if you want to find multiple emails that are scattered throughout your inbox? Wouldn’t it be so much easier to be able to view all of the emails in one place? Thanks to Outlook search folders, you can do just that. 

Search Folders organize emails by a specified sender, key word or phrase, attachments, flagged status, and more. They can be easily created by clicking New Search Folder, under the Folder tab. Once the folder has been created, it will appear on the left-hand bar with your other folders.  Click on it to view all of the emails that fall into that category.  

New messages that meet the search criteria will be added to the folder.
