Gmail has a search bar where you can filter emails. For example, to see emails from December 2019:
before:2020/01/01 after:2019/11/30
Or to see emails before the start of 2020 which are starred:
before:2020/01/01 is:starred
But how do you ask for "Emails before the start of 2020 and which are NOT starred? I've tried combinations like before:2020/01/01 NOT is:starred
or {before:2020/01/01} - {before:2020/01/01 is:starred}
but nothing works.
This Google help article covers more options, but I wasn't able to work out a way to select a negation (like the C/C++ !
operator).
