Tutorial For New Gmail On Mac Or PC

Gmail has a way to help with this, by allowing you to automatically limit the number of emails which will be shown in IMAP (that is, in your Mac or PC or iOS or Android mail client).

This is commonly referred to as Google Apps (sometimes Google Apps for Business or Google Apps for Work or Google Apps for Education etc).

For the sake of simplicity I will refer to Gmail.com whenever I mean the web interface for your Gmail account.

Most of Gmails features work best if you are using the web interface for Gmail, so I would encourage you to consider using that.

If you need to be logged in to several Google accounts during the day for email, calendar, etc.

The other nice thing is that you can set Mailplane to be your default mail application, so it will respond to mailto links and email addresses from other applications.

There are instructions for setting up MailMate with Gmail here.).

However, a problem can appear if you have filters in your Gmail account which apply labels to incoming messages.

For example, I could have an email which comes to me from Federico Viticci which could end up in my Inbox as well as my Important label as well as another label called Federico.

When I read that message through Gmails website, it will immediately be marked as read in the other labels as well.

If I delete that message in one of the Labels the message is not really deleted unless I am in the All Mail label, in which case it will be deleted, after warning me that I will really delete the email if I continue.

This can lead to a lot of duplication and confusion, obviously.

You can create your own set of labels, of course, and you can sort your email, either using Mail.apps Rules feature, or using Gmails filters feature, but my preferred way of managing this is to use SaneBox.

It is far easier and smarter than making your own Gmail filters or Mail.app rules.

They dont have access to your Gmail password, and you can revoke their access to your account at any time.).

In my experience, SaneBox is extremely smart about this, but if it makes a mistake, all you have to do is save the email to the folder where it should have gone.

For example, if an unimportant email ends up in your INBOX but it should have gone to SaneLater just move it to SaneLater and it will learn from this, and do that again in the future.

If an important email ends up in SaneLater simply save it to your INBOX and it will learn from that and do that again in the future.

Tutorial For New Gmail On Install Anything On

You dont have to install anything on your computer or your phone, because it all works server side.

It can also remind you of emails you have sent which have not been answered, and it can hide email until a later date if you want (i.e.

Friday but cantwont do anything about it until Monday, you can save it to a folder called SaneNextWeek and it will automatically re-appear on Monday.).

My preferred method is to select a message that I want to filter (usually based on who it was from ).

The great thing about Gmail is that it will automatically show you the results of the filter, as you put it in, so you can see that it is working as you want.

If you will be using your Google Calendar, be sure to check that box as well.
