Unread Mail Custom Search

Post by jstevens »

Is it possible to include two "Inbox" in a custom search? I have two inboxes: local and Gmail.
Regards,
John

This is the closest I can come to providing a solution to your query.
It seems the short answer is "No", but there are a few "hacks" that can be done to try and get a desired result you are after...

See:

And another link... Tip 966: View all Unread Mail from all Inboxes

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

According to Microsoft, "Search Folders cannot contain search results from across multiple data files."
