Aggregate Email accounts

I have several email addresses for different interests, finance, shopping, genealogy, projects, etc.

How can I group all of my genealogy accounts under one umbrella, so to speak? I could search or create a filter once for specific projects. For example, Civil War would be the filter and would be for all genealogy accounts.

A suggestion was to aggregate my emails. I don't know how.

Is this where Local Folders would be helpful?

Not sure if I am wording this correctly.

Thanks

File/New/Saved Search..., name it Genealogy, click Choose... to add the Inbox for all the genealogy accounts, then add filters if necessary, or 'Match all messages' to just collect all messages. If you wanted to aggregate all messages with Civil War in the Subject or Body, you would add those as filters (click the + to add filters) and Choose... the relevant folders in all accounts.

Thanks! Looking into it now!

I wondered how to save a search; didn't realize that I could create a new saved search.

Thanks

Got the hang of it, I think. Just did a test that seemed to work fine. Thank you
