- When you're composing an email, you can paste the result or just past the URL into your email or send entire result by email
- If you're chatting with someone, you can send the Search result via chat.
- You can also always compose a new email to send the search result.
Whatever you search from that Sidebar. it will show you the keyword history, Of course you can clear the history just by a click says "clear"
This feature is not working for searching emails within your Inbox. It would be nice if we can search emails also via this search box.
