Searching messages

Use the handheld’s search function to locate specific messages. You
can specify and save the terms of several searches and use them at
any time. You can also perform a one-time search. Two default
searches (Inbox and Outbox) are saved on the handheld.

To perform a search

In the Home screen, scroll to the SEARCH MESSAGES icon
and click.

The Search Messages screen appears. In the Name, Subject, or
Message fields, type the keywords for which you want to
search.
