I need to know what happened to all the emails I sent to people when I enter the address in the search email box it comes up empty when I know I have sent the person many many emails. I use this for work and i need these emails...please contact me *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
I know these emails are in my in my inbox. I have looked at the forums without success and followed what little advice there was. I want to know how I can easily fix this problem. I want to know in plain english, not being kept referred to links that don't help. I have cleared the cache, I do not have thousands of emails in my boxes either. I am getting desperate to find these 'hidden' emails. Thanks.
Hi there. The search email function on my hotmail account a few weeks ago. I have tried using Internet explorer and chrome browsers on different computers - office, home desktop and laptop. It also doesn't work in chrome and safari on my iPhone and iPad either. 

When I log in to another hotmail.com account on the same browsers, the search function works

I get this error on my iPhone:
Sorry, it looks like there was an error. Please try again. 
Ok

This error on desktop:

There was a problem with the Outlook service (a temporary network connectivity issue that has nothing to do with your computer). Please try again.  If you keep seeing this message, go to Service status to check if there's a problem with Outlook. 



Is there something wrong with the index on my account? I need to get this search function back urgently. 
Thanks
I have a list of email addresses that are not in my contacts but when I start typing in the search email box they appear. How can I delete them individually or the complete saved history of this list? Most of the email addresses I don't even know who they are.
