If the search function is not working in Mac Mail, it’s often due to issues with the Spotlight indexing system, which macOS relies on to power Mail search. A common manual fix involves rebuilding the Mailbox. To do this, open Mac Mail, select the mailbox you want to rebuild, and choose Mailbox > Rebuild from the top menu. This process can be time-consuming and may not resolve deeper indexing problems. Another method is to reindex Spotlight by going to System Settings > Siri & Spotlight, then adding and removing the Mail folder from the “Privacy” tab to force a reindex. However, these manual steps can be technically challenging and frustrating, especially when dealing with large volumes of email or intermittent issues.
A simpler and more reliable solution is to use a professional tool like the Cigati iCloud Email Backup Tool. This software not only helps create a secure backup of your iCloud emails but also allows you to export them into formats like PST, MBOX, or PDF, making it easier to access or search your emails outside the Mail app. It offers an efficient way to manage and retrieve your emails without the hassle of complex manual troubleshooting.
