# InboxQuery

> InboxQuery is a free, independent Gmail search query builder. It converts plain-English filters into Gmail operator syntax locally in the browser without requesting Gmail account access.

## Core Content

- [Gmail Search Query Builder](https://inboxquery.wiki/): Build a combined Gmail query from sender, recipient, subject, words, date, age, status, mailbox location, category, attachment, filename, and size filters.
- [Find Archived Emails in Gmail](https://inboxquery.wiki/find-archived-emails-in-gmail/): Start with `in:archive` and narrow archived messages by sender, date, unread state, or files.
- [Find Unread Emails in Gmail](https://inboxquery.wiki/find-unread-emails-in-gmail/): Start with `is:unread` and search unread mail across locations and categories.
- [Gmail Search by Date](https://inboxquery.wiki/gmail-search-by-date/): Build fixed `after:` and `before:` ranges or rolling `older_than:` and `newer_than:` searches.
- [Gmail Search by Sender](https://inboxquery.wiki/gmail-search-by-sender/): Find mail from one sender, multiple alternative senders, recipients, or domains.
