Use Gmail filters and labels to make emails go to a specific folder
Learn the trick to send emails to your own folder in Gmail rather than dumping all in the inbox. So, let’s begin.
In my Gmail inbox I can see, all emails dumped in the inbox folder except the emails filtered as spam. I have so many emails from Reddit and because of that I am getting difficulty to spot more important emails than these Reddit emails. So, what I will do is, I will create a folder and configure to send all the emails directly to that folder rather than in the inbox folder. This is something like filtering emails.
So for that, click on any of the emails that you want to filter, go to the three dots on the right side of the email and click on that. Here you can see, filter emails like these option. Or, you can do the same, by clicking on these three dots and clicking on filter emails like these.
Here, you can remove noreply@ to redirect all the emails from redditmail.com to the folder you specify, then just click on this create filter button. Now, click on Skip the inbox so that emails from redditmail will not appear in the Inbox folder now onwards, on the Apply Label, click on Choose Label and if you already have the folder, click on that or you can create new folder from here. Give a name to the folder and click on Create. I already have the folder in the name, so I close it and click on the folder.
Also you can check on Never send it to spam, categorize it as primary and very importantly, check on this Also apply filter to matching conversations so that all the existing emails from redditmail will be redirected to the folder, then click on create filter button. If you have so many emails, let’s say thousands of emails, then it may take quite a bit time.
