How to Search the Spam Folder in Gmail

by Mika

For quite some time I couldn’t figure out how to search through the spam folder in gmail (and google apps mail) unless your search found no results in the other folders. Well, it’s actually really simple now that I figured it out. Sure, I could have read the instructions but that takes the fun out of it, and it wasn’t all that important anyway.

Here’s how to search through your spam folder in gmail - it also works in google apps mail.

In the search box, type your search like you normally would, just ad “in:spam” to the end of it. So if you were to search for “password” and wanted to search just the spam folder for a password recovery email or something similar, type “password in:spam” without the quotes, of course. You can also reverse it, if you wanted to because that’s the logic that works with your brain, so try “in:spam password” and it does the same thing.
