Microsoft outlook 2016 for Mac - How to search your email

In Mac outlook 2016 for Mac it can be surprisingly hard to find the Search function to search all email accounts and all folders. There’s a search field that is visible, but it only searches the current folder.

Why Microsoft made the choice in MS outlook email search to hide the ability to search is somewhat of a mystery, but here’s how you access the search options in Outlook.

This works in outlook 2011 as well as outlook 2016 for the Mac


Folder – Search the current folder only

Subfolders – Search within the current folder and subfolders

All Mail boxes – Search all email in Multiple accounts and folders

All Outlook Items – Search all items in Outlook, including email, calendar entries, to-do entries, address book contacts, etc.
