Answers.Text: Sure, I tried searching by restricting to a group plus, in the Mailings section, restricting by date (this calendar year) and "opened." The search was fast and produced no matches.

Title: How do I find users who haven't opened any bulk mail from me recently?
ThreadText: # How do I find users who haven't opened any bulk mail from me recently?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-06-02)
  
  Bounce handling is broken on my site, and so I'm trying to clean my list through several steps.
  
  I'd like to get a list of users who have not opened *any* mailings in the recent past (say six months).
  
  I keep getting a server error 500 when I try to use the advanced search > mailings tab. But also I suspect that this search will simply give me a list of all contacts who have ever failed to open an email in the recent past, as opposed to the contacts who have never opened any emails.

  Is there a way to do this?
  
  Thanks!
