Narrow down your search results
To narrow search results, run a search first, then reopen Advanced Search with the filter icon and tick Search Results (search within the previous results). Add the new filters, such as a sender or attachment type, and click Search. XgenPlus searches only the mails already in your results, so the list gets shorter each time.

When to use it
Priya, a lawyer, searches for "contract" and gets 400 mails. She then searches within the results for mail from one counterparty, and again for mails with attachments, until only the five she needs are left.
Good to know
- The Search Results option appears only after you have run a search.
- Some choices from the first search, such as Read or Unread, stay fixed while you refine.
- Searching within results is not available for Archive of Deleted Emails searches.
