You can use the Batch Find feature of EmEditor. To do this:

1. In EmEditor, click Ctrl+F to bring up the Find dialog box.
2. Click the Batch >> button if the dialog box has not been extended already.
3. Copy all the text you want to search for, separated by a newline, (In your sample, copy all 5 lines, between gmail and comcast) to the Clipboard.
4. Press Ctrl+V after you click the Batch list on the right side of the Find dialog box.
5. If necessary, press Ctrl+A, right-click on the list, and select Match Case or Match Whole Word.
6. Click the "Batch Bookmark" button.
