Search Tips

When you choose the "exact" option in the dropdown menu, you gain advanced searching capabilities.

The "contains" search, which is the default option, automatically surrounds your query with asterisks, invisibly transforming your query into a wildcard search for *keyword*. When you choose the exact option, wildcards are left up to you.

Search Input

The format of Name input is Firstname (space) Lastname.

The format of Phone input is a number of digits and dashes, but note that format of internal numbers is simply four digits.

The format of Email input is the part of the address before the "@" sign and is the same as the username of the person.

Both the Mailing Lists and Mail Aliases search are for the part of the address before the "@" sign.

Mailing Lists are managed by Mailman, whereas Mail Aliases are simple static lists. You need to click on the details for Mailman lists in order to go to the Mailman application if you want to see the membership of the list.
