Recently I felt the need to organize my mails into separate folders. But unfortunately, there is no option of creating folders as in Yahoo. workaround. Here’s the process which will be useful for organizing messages.
Create a new label (eg. LIC) by clicking on “Edit labels” in the Labels panel or going to “Settings”
In Settings, click on “Filters”
Click on “Create a new filter”
Type in mailing list prefix (eg. lic)in subject field and press “Next step”
Make sure “Skip the Inbox” is checked and select the new label from the “Apply the label” dropdown
Select “Create Filter”
The Labels panel will now act as a folder list. This filter will prevent mailing list messages from showing up in the GMail Notifier. This would be a benefit for those who want to really organize the data. Labels can be used as an alternative since folders facility is not available.
One of the benefits is being able to store messages under multiple labels rather than being stuck with a single folder.
