## Quick Search

In the mail view, you can quickly search for messages by defining conditions.

Click on the search icon to expand the drop-down list.

Select the search condition from the list.

Select the scope from the drop-down list right to the text box.

For the Current Account scope, the term "account" refers to top-level nodes in the mail folder list, like "On this computer" and remote mail accounts.

Enter the text you want to search for and press Enter.

Evolution displays the search results.

If you start directly from the fourth step, text will be searched in mail's subjects and addresses and scope will be "Current folder".

If you search for messages that are not in the same folder rather often you might want to create a search folder instead; see Using Search Folders for more detail.

If you want to set several search conditions, you should use an Advanced search, which is described below.
