Search the intended mailbox

  1. First check the selected mailbox, then search for a distinctive subject term or sender detail.
  2. Review the selected folder and filters such as Unread or Important; the message may be outside the current view.
  3. For older mail, continue loading results or check Archive, Sent and Trash.

In a shared mailbox

Organization requires message-management permission. Read-only access does not allow moving messages, and sending permission does not automatically grant trash access. Ask the owner to review the specific permission rather than sharing the mailbox password.
