30 in 30: Day 10 - Gmail: Searching with Options

Day 10 in the 30 in 30 series is going to piggyback from what was talked about on Day 9.  Once you start to archive your emails instead of deleting them, you can then go back and search for what you need when you need it.  While most teachers will just go back up to the search bar in Gmail and type in the who or what, I'm going to suggest that you take it one step further.  Most of the time you know some specific information about what you are looking for; like who it is from, a key word or date from the email, did it include an attachment or not or even if it was only sent to me.  Try expanding the search box to show you all of  the options so you actually get exactly what you are looking for and not what Gmail thinks you want.  Looking for a more detailed description of what I am talking about, click here to watch the video on how to use the search options in Gmail.
