+## Filtering Options
+
+The search filter works in the following way:
+
+- The filter is case insensitive (i.e., `term` and `TERM` will return the same results).
+- A message will be returned if it matches at least one of the terms (i.e., the logical operator between the terms is `OR`).
+- A `*` wildcard can be used to replace a prefix and/or a postfix of a searched term (i.e., `word` will be found by `*rd`, `wo*`, and `*or*`).
+- Other logical operators (e.g., conjunction, negation) are not supported.
