- [lightgreen]INQUIRE[cyan]
- Allows you to scan the [yellow]From:[cyan], [yellow]To:[cyan], and [yellow]Subject:[cyan] 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:
-
- [white]?[cyan] : matches any single character; i.e. "Th?t" finds "This" & "That"
- [white]*[cyan] : matches any number of instances of the same character; i.e.
- "x*yz" finds "xyz","yz", and "xxyz"
- [white]+[cyan] : matches one or more instances of a single character; i.e.
- "x+yz" finds "xyz" and "xxyz"
-
- To find a [gray]LITERAL[cyan] question mark, asterisk or plus sign, precede it
- with a backslash, i.e. "[gray]\[cyan]?", "[gray]\[cyan]*", "[gray]\[cyan]+"[gray]
