Lately, when I have been doing searches in Mail, the results no longer show any returns for "Content", so if I want to search my mail for something in the body of an email, I get no results. I have always had this option before. Is there a way to retire it?
Try rebuilding the mailbox.
Rebuild mailbox
If that doesn't work, try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
Reindex messages For El Capitan, try looking in V3. Sierra use V4
Reindex messages (2) See post by Linc Davis
Hi,
Try the suggestions in this Apple support article > Mail for Mac: If searching doesn’t find the right messages
Thanks Carolyn, but I have already tried that.
Thanks Eric, I will try that when I can allow my machine to think a while.🙂
You are welcome.
