Abstract:
Presenting search suggestions within a messaging application that include attachments without searching messages for the attachments is provided. Messages are received at a computer and managed by a messaging application. A query for suggestions is received via the messaging application. The query is performed by the messaging application without querying the messages that have been received through the messaging application. Suggested search results are provided by the messaging application. The suggestions include attachments that were received via a message through the messaging application. In one or more aspects, the suggested search results also provide other attachments that were received by other than the messaging application.
