Outlook tip: Find mail from a month ago
I was looking for a way to create a Search Folder tonight in Outlook, when I decided to try and treat it like a modern client instead of the crappy behemoth it actually is. I wanted to find all message sent by me that were one month old.
None of the defaults worked, however, and the documentation is spartan at best. But to my surprise, natural language worked. I can now see email sent exactly 1 month ago..perfect for quick followups.
I’ve tried several different combinations and so far, so good. This is an excellent way to parse old email and see what you may have missed or note any trends.
Hope this helps someone.
:)
[EDIT] Kind of works in Entourage also:
