I get no results when searching for emails

[spicedham]

mail is checked under searchable items in settings but I don't get results when using the phone's search. is it because I'm using the gmail app instead of the mail app? that's weak if the search doesn't support google's own gmail app.

My gmail app searches gmail's archives of my emails. In fact I can search back 5 years worth of emails as long as I haven't deleted them from the gmail server.
