How to search email by unique categories

Hello,

Are you aware of a way to search emails which are flagged with a category alone? e.g. I could have emails flagged with 2 categories, "my","CatA". But I could also have emails with just "my" category. I would that the search returns emails which are flagged only with "my", ignoring the ones with double category.

 

Thank you

    Hi Ruka_Zill,

     

    I am an independent advisor answering Outlook questions.

     

    You can use the Search Syntax:
    category:"my" NOT category:"CatA"

     

    Your results will show "My" emails only without any combinations of "My" and "CatA".

     

    If you find this information helpful, please mark it as best response or like it which will assist others with the same question.
