Finding specific emails in Outlook is extremely difficult and time-consuming. The search tools are inadequate, lacking basic Boolean search options and making it impractical to manage large inboxes.

Takes me 20 minutes to find an email from less than a week ago
Outlook has crap search tools. Even a simple Boolean search option with the available metadata fields they use anyway would be fantastic.
