Search filters

The Archiver provides a set of filters to perform searches. All the filters are available on the upper row of the right panel.

Full text filter

By typing a word in the query textfield, you can perform full-text searches, searching into all elements of your archived email, including but not limited to Subject, From Address and To Address.

Wildcard

The ´*´ is a wildcard character which can be used to perform a search of a word or an unknown string. You can use it in a string of at minimum three characters different than ´*´. For example, by searching for ‘Enc*’ you will find all the emails containing a work beginning with ‘Enc’.

Search tips

To perform a search for a specific ´Message-id´, use the keyword ´message-id:´ followed by the desired message-id. Example: message-id: <MESSAGE_ID_TO_SEARCH@SOME_FQDN> To perform a search for a specific ´Mail-id´, use the keyword ´mail-id:´ followed by the desired mail-id. Example: mail-id: MAIL_ID_NUMBER To search for all the emails archived within a specific archive in the archiver, use the keyword ´archiver-name:´ followed by the name of the archive itself. Example: archive-name: ARCHIVE_NAME.zip

Advanced filters

With LibraCyber Email Archiver advanced search you can build flexible and complex searches by combining multiple filters.

How advanced filters work

Advanced filters are built through groups and filters. A filter is a single condition. You can add conditions on subject, from, to or cc, filter, body and attachment filename. For each filter type you have different condition options. For example, for the subject condition you can configure equal to, not equal to, contains word or doesn’t contain word. A group is composed by one or more filters. You can configure a group to match all the filters or at least one:

  • if you select MATCH ALL, all the filters must be verified in order to the group to be verified
  • if you select MATCH at least ONE, at least one of the filters must be verified in order to the group to be verified

If you configure multiple groups you can choose if configure a MATCH ALL or a MATCH at least ONE condition between groups.

Example

In the following example, the search will provide all the emails sent from marco.beretta@libraesva.com with subject containing the word "test" OR all the emails sent from marco.rossi@libraesva.com with subject equal to "TEST INVIO".

Search tips

From, To search fields supports the wildcard character ´*´ which allows you to perform a search without specifying the complete email address. Here is a list of examples:
  • john.doe@example.com
  • john*
  • *doe*
  • *@example.com
By using the wildcard character *, you can perform flexible searches that match various patterns within the email addresses.
