You do not say whether you are using an email app to manage your emails or whether you are using the Webmail service that VM provide on their website https://mail2.virginmedia.com/
On the VM website it's simple enough to do a search if a bit long winded. The problem is that you can only search in one folder at a time. Once you have opened a folder your can enter your search term in the top left of the screen:
As soon as you enter a search term you are offered the choice of whether to search in subject line, in email text or in the sender field (the figure head icon).Click on which ever you want to search.
As I say, the limitation is that you can only search in one folder at a time.
The screen shots are from the desktop version of the VM website. If you are viewing on a phone or small tablet the mobile version of the website is a bit more of a challenge to navigate but the principle is the same.
If you are accessing your emails via an app such as Outlook of one of the many apps available for mobile phones then each app will provide it's own search facility. Precisely how that search facility works will be different for every app.
