Search doesn't do its job very well. Misses a lot of emails, including the most recent ones
Just what the subject line says. Go looking for something and Search doesn't find it. Even after I remember the email and find it, Search does not find it.
Why is this? It is un-usable, actually as it happens all the time.
For instance, putting in a company name like "walmart.com" will find some but not all the emails with walmart.com and certainly not the most recent ones specifically with a person's name.

Yeah, that didn't work.
Please help. The reindexing DID NOT work.
Perhaps after a week I am interested in listening to an assertion that a rebuild did not work. But after 2 days I would expect mine to still be rebuilding!
So as hyperlinks are a very poor choice of search criteria, what other poor choices are you making the makes your results significantly worse than others.
Of not any search involving number can be expected to fail. Any search involving the quoted text in an email will fail as quoted text is not indexed at all. Searches involving words of three or less characters will fail. Again not indexed.
So please explain your typical search?
