So basically this is to stop us from showing addresses that start the same, but aren't entirely the same.
Now the search allows you to search for any parts of email addresses like
from:help.com
Would search for everyone that's sent you an email and works at help.com
Similarly you can search for
from:vivaldi
which would find anyone with vivaldi in their address like
[email protected] or
[email protected] etc.
Here's the reason for the above question.
Let's say you have two addresses that are completely different people Anna and Hanna.
Now I search for all email addresses from Anna.
from:
[email protected]
The issue is that would also show all of the emails
[email protected] has been sending you 😕
That's the reason the search uses ^ which means starts with and ,
The comma is simply because the addresses are kept together for each email. Now we might fix that going forward so that ^ would be enough (if the email addresses are kept separately)
Hope this explains it 🙂
Note: This also means that if you're sure
[email protected] is not part of any other address then from:
[email protected] is plently
