Conclusion
Old emails or emails with large attachments take up space in your Gmail account. Finding it difficult to find the precise email message you seek? Fortunately, Google has expanded the methods you may search for information and, possibly, purge those enormous emails you no longer require.
Use the greater: operator along with the email’s size, K for KB, and M for MB, to identify emails larger than a given size. For instance, typing “larger:500M” will return all 500MB or more emails.
To locate older or more recent emails, use the older than: & newer than operators. If you put “older than:1y,” for instance, Gmail will display all messages that are older than that period (use “m” for months and “d” for days). Use “newer than:4d” to locate emails received within the last four days.
Want to find an email that contains a specific word but no related words? Use the operator + (the plus sign). For instance, if you search for “+universe,” all emails that contain “universe” will come up, but not emails that also contain “universes” or “universal.”
