    <p>You can use any combination of these search operators in a
    single query.  For example:</p>

    <p>&nbsp; <span class="operator">stream:<span class="operator_value">streamname</span>
          sender:<span class="operator_value">user@example.com</span>
            <span class="operator_value">keyword</span></span></p>

    <p>would search for messages sent
    by <span class="operator_value">user@example.com</span> to stream
    <span class="operator_value">streamname</span>
    containing the keyword <span class="operator_value">keyword</span>.</p>
