How to Search for Emails Using Search Operators

To use search operators, just open Gmail and type them into the search bar.
Here are some examples of common search operators:
• When searching for an email from a specific person, use the search operator
"from:" followed by their name.
For example, from:kamal — displays sent messages from Kamal.

• When searching for an email you sent to a particular person, use the search
operator "to:" followed by the person's name.
For example, to:peter — shows email messages you sent to Peter.

• When searching for an email about a specific topic, you can use the operator
"subject:" followed by the topic.
For example, subject:Cane — displays all emails that contain the word "Cane" in the
subject line.
