Why is my email not working?

Why is the email search feature not working?

• I run my business through my yahoo account and I often need to do an email search for specific past emails from customers. Lately the search feature isn't working at all. It either says no results found or gives me a partial list of emails that are usually older. I do have a lot of email (over 5,000) Is it possible that it is so full that the search feature just doesnt work anymore? Please help as this is driving me crazy. I now have to go back through pages and pages of emails trying to find that one email in order to answer someones question and it's very time consuming. Thanks, Scott

  Not to steal the last person's "answer, " but I too suffer this issue. I do not use my address for business, but still ... I cannot search for simple terms like vacation or kitty or a person's name.
