Idea:

When I do a search in my mail file based on some search criteria, I want to be able to display the unread emails only within my search results...

Here are some examples:

1. Switch to "All Documents" view

2. Click View ---> Search This View

3. Type "XPages" then press enter or search

4. Click Show ---> Unread Only (to display unread only emails) - it should display only the unread emails within my search results

5. In the search results, it should only display unread emails from the search results from step 3.

1. Switch to "All Documents" view

2. Click Show ---> Unread Only (to display unread only emails)

3. Click View ---> Search This View

4. Type "XPages" then press enter or search

5. In the search results, it should only display unread emails from the search results from step 4 because I have already selected in step 2 to show "Unread Only".

Comment: I know that this works using iNotes but does not work in the Notes client. This idea is for the Notes Client.

Comment: Works for me in Lotus Notes 8.5.2 FP2. I am searching using the full text search, then I show unread only.

Comment: Did it keep your search results and display only the unread emails from your search results or did it display all unread emails as well when you clicked on show unread only?

I am using Lotus Notes 8.5.2 FP1 and it's not working for me.

Comment: It does work but you have to change "Sort results by" to "relevance" as shown in the image above from the default setting of "keep current order (sortable)". Maybe the default value for the "Sort results by" should be set to "relevance" instead of "keep current order (sortable)"...
