Search operator/string (not dropdown item) for searching within a particular mailbox
Hi all,
I have Outlook set up to search all folders of all mailboxes by default, and this is the way I like it. However, I often wish to search for items that are in one particular inbox or another. I prefer to use text operators, rather than dropdown menus or fields, so to search the inbox I would use the operator folderpath:inbox. However, because of my default "all mailboxes" setting, the operator folderpath:inbox returns messages in all inboxes - i.e. those in the inbox of mailbox1, those in the inbox of mailbox2, etc. Is there a way to make the folderpath operator specific to a particular inbox? Or is there an operator to specify a particular mailbox, which I could combine with the folderpath operator? For example, if the operator was "mailbox", to search for messages from Jimmy in the inbox of mailbox1, I could type:
from:jimmy folderpath:inbox mailbox:mailbox1
