How to organize Gmail labels filters?
Gmail has Labels Filters function. The “Labels” allow users to sort the mails according to their needs. The “Filters” function allow users’ mails to be filtered into its category when received.
If you can use both, you can filter each time a new mail is received according to the specified conditions, and then summarize the priority of the daily pending mails by filtering the specified label category. Let’s start dealing with emails in a faster way!
Step 1. How to create “Label” in Gmail?
First, please create a label classification according to the user’s own habits or work mode. You can click the”Create New Label”(1 in the figure) in the bottom area of the mailbox and enter the desired classification item (2 in the figure). Finally, click on the create (3 in the figure) to create the label.
Step 2. How to create “Filter” in Gmail?
When the label is created, you can use “Filter” when you want the emails to be sorted accordingly. For instance, a user need all the relevant emails that match the word”Human Resource“to be automatically marked with the “HR” tag. The order in which the filters are created is as follows:
-
Enter “Human Resource” in the search field on Gmail.
-
Click “▾” on the right side of the search field.
-
The word field has the “Human Resource” you just entered, and then click on the bottom right corner to create a filter based on this search criteria.
-
Choose the “HR” label.
-
Then click “Create Filter” at the bottom.
By this way, when the emails are filtered to match the word “Human Resource”, the “HR” label will be automatically marked. Therefore, you don’t even have to open the email to know about the mail content. However, you can just read the subject and marks it to the HR label category.
After the setting is completed, now you can understand the email information more intuitively through the label.
