No matter what tips I try and follow, nothing allows me to search within a specific folder. I cannot search just my inbox, or just search within another folder. Please give us back this option. It is not an option under advanced menu.

The older version allowed you to pick which folder you wanted to search in. When I search for something, it now brings up everything in my email, so I am at risk of deleting saved emails that are saved in folders. I want to limit my search to my inbox only. I do not want my mail search to include what is in my folders. Either let me go back to the older version that lets me limit my search to the inbox or add the option back.

In the Classic Yahoo Mail, I was able to search email within a Folder. For example, I frequently search in Inbox folder for emails and then move them to different folders. However, the New Yahoo Mail is missing this feature. Now when I search emails, it lists all the matching emails from all folders... Now I lost the ability the search only the new emails, or emails still in the Inbox Folder...

When I am in the inbox on my iphone and search for say,Amazon. It gives me a choice of current mailbox or all mailboxes.
This thing you have on the PC is much more limited and does not allow for that.
I have to self filter looking for items which are still in the inbox if I want to move them to my Amazon file/mailbox.
This limitation and my needing to use more of my time is not frustrating, it is MADDENING!

allow to search within a specific folder(s) and offer all other customisable search features offered in Classic

I have tried to search the in box only and I have have not being able to do it. The old version allowed me to do it. The new version allow me to search individual folders but not the inbox itself. So when I make a search w/o specifying a folder it give all files found in all the folders. As a result of this I have deleted files that I have saved in individual folders. Too bad!!!

The new advanced search is missing the ability to refine the search by searching only in specific folders (especially limiting it to by just in the inbox, as I do not want to find those emails I've already filed) and by using keyword - unless I type the keyword first, then it seems to use that? But I can't edit that once I've opened the advanced search.

I use those extensively - especially as I've been trying to clean up my inbox.

thank you.

Although previously since the forced migration, we could still sort search results by folder, so that for example we were only looking in the inbox or the sent folder, currently there is no way to do this. We can sort by attachments and other useless things, but not by folder! Please bring back the ability to sort searches by folder, thank you!

I used to be able to search items by folder. For instance, if I want to see if my bank sent new emails, I could just search my inbox and no older emails I saved in other folders would show up in the search.

But I'd prefer just going back to the old format.

I want to be able to refine the search to a specific folder not get everything in the email. I hate the look of the new email, I also want to see all - not default to primary. Yuck why couldn't you just leave it alone - it was fine or let me swap back.

A search that gives results from every folder is a nightmare! There's always been a way to choose to search just within one folder, please bring that back immediately!

When searching for specific emails from an entity, at present, the advanced search pulls emails from all mailboxes/folders and cannot be limited to a specific mailbox i.e. the inbox or folder. being able to limit it would help in dealing with only those i.e. in the inbox rather than including emails that have been dealt with and filed in other folders. Without this (being able to select a specific mailbox or folder), the "select all" box is dangerous and can lead to important emails that have been filed in appropriate folders being deleted. When googling the possibility, the advanced search came up with this option. However, after 42 minutes of searching, the functionality in not available to me.

It does not appear that one can still select specific folders as criteria for searching. This is extremely limiting and results in additional time and effort for me. Some users do use folders in this email service and others. So, searching exclusively in the inbox for a specific date range of messages is very helpful in cleaning email. I *do not* want to include mail that I have already put into a folder. It seems to me this would not be difficult for advanced search as was there previously.

search by folder in advance search has been removed, please bring it back ....

Search feature no longer has ability to focus on a folder - Search feature has become not as useful. Ability to search in a particuar folder only, or by sender only, or with attachments only etc are missing compared to the classsic version

Searches from within most folders search only the contents of that folder. However, searches from within Inbox search ALL folders (not just Inbox). Limit Inbox searches to the Inbox folder (by default). Provide a non-default means of searching ALL folders.

You used to be able to filter your searches by various folders. If it is still possible, it's not clear how to do it. Stop messing with things.

Currently, Search is always global, even from inside a specific folder. Make Search default to "only within the current folder". Provide a setting to specify either the specific folder to be searched or "All Folders".

The inability to specify which folder to do a search in represents a major drawback. I want to search my inbox only so I can move relvant items to a folder. This used to be possible and I don't understand why it no longer is,

Enable Searching mails , folder specific , both default and user created . This will make clearing mails easier , and Customer Satisfaction up by several notches
