- èINQUIREâ
- Allows you to scan the ÄFrom:â, ÄTo:â, and ÄSubject:â fields of messages
- for a particular series of characters or words. The fewer letters
- you enter, the more likely you are to find what you're looking for.
-
- Inquire allows use of "wildcard" characters as follows:
-
- Å?â : matches any single character; i.e. "Th?t" finds "This" & "That"
- Å*â : matches any number of instances of the same character; i.e.
- "x*yz" finds "xyz","yz", and "xxyz"
- Å+â : matches one or more instances of a single character; i.e.
- "x+yz" finds "xyz" and "xxyz"
-
- To find a çLITERALâ question mark, asterisk or plus sign, precede it
- with a backslash, i.e. "ç\â?", "ç\â*", "ç\â+"ç
