Gmail Priority Inbox

All,

As i said you in one of my earlier post, i use to have atleast 10 email accounts for various purpose, such as leaving comment on any online page, newsletters, personal, job search etc. I know you might have raised a question to yourself on me like "How do i manage all these?" Simple!!! I check the emails everyday :) and clear my inbox. If i miss one day then it will make me to sit in the hell.

Among 95% of email users will not do as i did, i know. Maintaining one account and remembering the password itself is like waslking on a rope to cross two tall building. The point is you have only one email account but receiving 1000+ emails everyday(including deals, newsletters etc). And how do you ensure that you have read some important emails. Missing some important email chances are high if you handle your mail box like this.

Now what's the solution???? I left this question to Google! Finally they came up with a smart solution : Priority Inbox!!! Wow!

Priority Inbox is a similar kind of inbox but it will hold only some important emails as per your settings. Yes, we have filter option i agree but this is different with filters or we can call it as advanced filter technique :).

Mailes will be held for your special attention in your priority inbox and all you need to do is just check this priority inbox regularly. This way you will be having less time to spend on reading 1000+ un important emails.

Gmail by itself analyze your inbox and give some sugession to add the emails as priority inbox emails with respect to the existing and frequent emails flow from your inbox. All you need to do is click on +/- to move the emails to priority inbox.

Let's see how to configure the same.

• Once you login to your gmail at top right corner you will see New Feature Pirority Inbox.
• Click on that, Google will analyze your existing emails in your inbox and give it's suggesion to add some emails to importance. Incase if you don't want click on "-" sign on the window.
• Goto Settings-->Priority inbox  as shown below to change your settings. Incase if you don't like this feature and decided to hide the priority inbox just click on "Do not show priority inbox" radio button as shown below.

If you have some filters already you can either override that or else you can leave that existing.

• To add some emails quickly to priority inbox, just open the email and click on +/- button as shown below to add or remove from priority inbox.
