Is it possible to make a query inside my own gmail similar to the google one "site:histo.cat" where it lets me display only the images attached in my email?
SĂ, es posible realizar una bĂşsqueda en Gmail para mostrar solo los correos electrĂłnicos que contienen imágenes adjuntas.
Puedes hacerlo de dos maneras principales:
Usando el operador filename:: En la barra de bĂşsqueda de Gmail, puedes escribir:
filename:(jpg OR jpeg OR png OR gif OR bmp OR webp OR tiff)
Esto te mostrará todos los correos que tienen archivos adjuntos con esas extensiones de imagen.1 Ten en cuenta que esta búsqueda funciona para imágenes que fueron enviadas como adjuntos directos, no para imágenes que están "hotlinked" desde un servidor externo en el cuerpo del correo.1
Usando la bĂşsqueda avanzada:
Haz clic en la flecha hacia abajo que aparece en el lado derecho de la barra de bĂşsqueda de Gmail.
Se abrirá un panel con opciones de búsqueda avanzadas.
Marca la casilla que dice "Tiene archivo adjunto" (o "has attachment" si tu interfaz está en inglés).1
Aunque esta opción te mostrará todos los correos con cualquier tipo de adjunto, puedes combinarla con la búsqueda por tipo de archivo (filename:) en la misma barra de búsqueda para refinar aún más los resultados y ver solo las imágenes.
Gmail también tiene la capacidad de identificar correos con "imágenes incrustadas" (inline images) 4, y el operador
filename: deberĂa incluirlas si se enviaron como parte del mensaje y no como un enlace externo.

Yes! You can search for emails with attachments in Gmail using specific search operators, but it's not exactly the same as Google's site:
operator. Here’s how to filter emails with image attachments in your Gmail:
Gmail Search Operators for Images:
-
All Attachments:
has:attachment
Shows all emails with any type of attachment.
-
Only Image Attachments:
has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png OR filename:gif OR filename:jpeg OR filename:webp)
Filters emails with common image file types.
-
From a Specific Sender with Images:
from:example@gmail.com has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png)
Filters emails from a specific sender containing JPG or PNG files.
-
Images in a Specific Label/Folder:
label:work has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png)
Searches only in a specific label.
-
Images Received Within a Timeframe:
after:2024/01/01 before:2024/12/31 has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png)
Filters images received in a given year.
Limitations:
-
Gmail doesn’t have a direct "show only images" view like Google Images (site:
).
-
You can’t preview thumbnails of all images at once (you must open each email).
-
For advanced searches, consider using Google Takeout to export your emails and then search locally.
Alternative: Use Google Drive (If Images Were Saved)
If you’ve ever saved attachments to Google Drive, you can search there using:
type:image
But this only works for files already in Drive, not Gmail attachments.
Would you like help refining a specific search?
Let’s refine your Gmail search to find image attachments more efficiently . Here are some optimized queries and tricks:
1. Basic Query for Common Image Types
This catches most image attachments (adjust extensions as needed):
has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:jpeg OR filename:png OR filename:gif OR filename:webp OR filename:bmp)
Bonus : Add `larger:1M` to exclude tiny thumbnails:
has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png) larger:1M
2. Advanced: Search by Image Dimensions (Workaround)
Gmail doesn’t support searching by resolution directly, but you can:
Filter large files (likely high-res images):
has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png) larger:2M
- Use Google Drive : If images were saved to Drive, search there with:
type:image width>1000 height>1000
3. Find Images from Specific Contexts
- From a sender/domain :
from:example@domain.com has:attachment filename:jpg
- With keywords in subject/body :
subject:"vacation" has:attachment filename:png
- In a label/category :
label:photos has:attachment filename:jpg
4. Exclude Unwanted Attachments
Avoid documents with similar extensions (e.g., `.psd`, `.pdf`):
has:attachment (filename:jpg OR filename:png) -filename:pdf -filename:psd
5. Time-Based Filters
Find recent images:
after:2024-01-01 has:attachment filename:jpg
Or from an exact period:
after:2023-12-25 before:2024-01-05 has:attachment filename:png
Pro Tip: Use Gmail’s Advanced Search UI
1. Click the down arrow (>) in Gmail’s search bar.
2. Fill in fields like:
- "Has attachment" : Yes
- "File type" : Specify `image` (if available) or manually enter extensions.
- Size : Choose "Larger than" (e.g., 1 MB).
Limitations & Alternatives
- No thumbnail grid : Gmail won’t display images like Google Images.
- For bulk exports : Use Google Takeout to download all email data, then use a local tool (e.g., Thunderbird) to search attachments.
- Third-party tools : Apps like [Attachments.me](https://www.attachments.me/) (discontinued, but alternatives exist) could help in the past—check Chrome extensions for similar tools.
Try these and let me know which works best for you! If you have a specific use case (e.g., finding old vacation photos), I can tailor the query further.
