Select Go to Advanced Search or Shift + Enter from within a quick search (Figure 1):

Type your keyword and apply different filters across tabs to find what you’re looking for including the name of the sender, a date range and if the message has attachments (Figure 3):

Note: In the Messages tab you can search using filters without typing in a search word.
Once you find what you’re looking for, you can take actions directly from the three dot menu that appears on the result (Figure 4):
