Search forward or backward on named expressions

A named expression is a filter that you have saved by name. (See save the current filter.)  Search by expression commands prompt for the name of a saved filter, and move the selection to the next or previous message in the filter result, but without clearing other messages. This allows you to step through the results of a filter while reviewing other messages in the file.

To search forward:

1. On the Search menu, click Search Forward on Named Expression.

2. On the submenu, click the name of a saved filter.

To search backward:

1. On the Search menu, click Search Backward on Named Expression.

2. On the submenu, click the name of a saved filter.
