POP accounts end up in the same main inbox so I assume you refer to
IMAP / other remote account types. You could set up a search folder:

F7 only offers to go through all unrecognized words in the entire mail.

Feature requests could be reported in the task tracker under

"icloud" = email? Where to find Apple's docs? What does "no avail" mean
and what happens exactly? Are there error messages? Which ones?

See "Help > Quick Reference" for some shortcuts. The main menu should
also display keyboard shortcuts right next to an item. 
In this case: "Ctrl+Return".

Cheers,

PS: For future reference, mentioning your Evolution version is welcome.
