emails search

Hello,
On Win10 - Outlook 2016, it seems to be impossible to make some search
within email.
Result is always : nothing.
Inexation statut seems to be ok.
I've found some answers on the web that give script for make a reset on
ACL but there is no change.

So, can someone tell me how to repair this ?
Is there a third party software for searching within Oultook ?
Thanks for any advice.

An example of a search term:

Outlook 2016 federated search

Here is an article, detailing the two search options.
The Exchange server can do the search for you, on
the Exchange end. But you can disable this, and go back
to Windows Search Index.

https://social.technet.microsoft.com...?forum=outlook

For the Windows Indexing Options to work, Outlook 2016 must
provide a "search provider". Any time a text file is not
a plain text file, a "search provider" tells the
Windows Search Indexer how to access the text in a database
or compressed archive. So if the format of the file is "complex",
a "search provider" decodes the container, and delivers the
plain text the Indexer needs. So if a tool is not integrating
well into Federated Search, then you want to verify the
"search provider" of the tool, is working.

And the picture here, shows the addition of the folder location
to the search. Notice that the Microsoft Outlook entity shown
here, is not file/folder based. The "search provider" appears
to have registered with the Search Indexer, causing a new separate
item to appear in the list. Ticking that box, allows the next
Index Build, to include the Outlook stuff.

Thanks very much,
So, I'm not using Exchange.
I'm working alone on just one computer.

Outlook seems to be registered in search indexer.
However, I don't have a little arrow (as on your picture) to develop
and see what is "inside" / under Outlook.

For example, if I'm searching something basic as my name or just a "a",
Outlook find 2 or 3 messages.
And I've got more than 4000 messages in my Inbox...

From within Outlook (File/Open and Export), you can dump out messages in
..csv format and it will open an Excel spreadsheet. Columns correspond to
the components of messages including one for the body text.

Correction: exporting creates a .csv file you can put anywhere you want.
On my system, the file opens in Excel.
