30 Review the Methods of Finding
Additional Example Finds
Multiple permutations of the same “root” word
Suppose you receive many emails from certain subject-focussed web sites, and news sites, about
scientific topics. Suppose you remembered that some time ago you received an email about a
science web site which advocated free access to all scientific publications and you want to find that
particular email.
1. Choose Emails from the Kind group.
2. Begin typing
scien
in the URLs in Text group and look at the list of available selectors in that group.
You might see the following long list, shown here in four columns for compactness:
Table 3
Many alternative permutations of “scien”
There are too many possibilities. Looking through them, you happen to notice two interesting ones
(shown above, here highlighted in red).
• If you were to choose them one at a time, then after the first choice the list would be adjusted
and this could remove the other possible selector making it unavailable.
• If you were allowed to choose them both, you would find only those items which contain both
selectors as terms.
• Instead you want to find all items that contain either one of them.
3. So, press A while you choose those two as alternatives.
Too many matching items remain, so you add more selectors. You know that the article was
about free access, so…
4. Type the two words free and access into the Any Text group.
The article appears in a short list of 7 matched items.
In general it is best to use as little specificity as you need to sufficiently narrow your list of matched
items, unless you are sure of the specifics.
Matching “someone” @domain… versus a bare domain
If you enter in a single word into either the To or From fields, that word will not match a bare
domain.
For example, if you type
nisus
into the To field it would match the contact:
Nisus Support <[email protected]>
because of the “Nisus” in “Nisus Support”. But it would NOT match:
Reuben Simons <[email protected]>
because InfoClick does not match the bare domain (e. g: just “nisus” from “nisus.com”).
You could match the domain by searching on “nisus.com” instead.
