Searching for a Specific Type of E-mail

PinterestFacebookShare

Are you getting tired of looking what seems like hundreds or even thousands of different e-mails and your just looking for one specific e-mail.

Well with G-mail you do not have to spend, what kind seems to be countless of hours, anymore. Now you will be able to go to one place, type in the –email that you are looking for and press enter. Then the e-mail that you want will be right there.

On the top part of the screen you will see what looks like a search bar that you would find when you visit Google homepage. With this search bar you will not be able to look up “The top 10 fashion dress” (if you have no email with that keyword).  This search bar you will be able to look though your e-mails for anything you want.

In the picture above, I was looking for “Google offers”. I typed it in the search bar, and I got all email that have the words “Google offers”.

There are several different ways that you will be able to do to look though the e-mails:

  1. Type in the person’s name of the e-mail that you want.
  2. Type in the specific key phrase that is in the e-mail

Setting Up Filters for Your Emails

PinterestFacebookShare

G-mail has a filter feature, which can be found on all their users e-mail. With the filters feature, it allows all the incoming e-mail to be placed, where you want them to go (either in different folders or in spam,) without you lifting a finger.

To create different filters please follow the following steps:

*On your search box, you will find a down arrow, click on it

*Then a screen will appear that will specify the search criteria. The click on the Create filter with this search, which is located on the bottom part of the search window

*Lastly, click the create filter button

 

When you build a filter to forward information, only new information will be impacted. Any current e-mails will not be moved to the new location, this only works with new e-mails, that would have went into your inbox first.

You are able to create as many filters as you want but just in mind that only 20 filters will allow you to forward e-mails to other address. But to maximize your filters, you can combine your filters (if possible.)

With the filter, you can delete the mail, star it, forward it, or store it in a new label. This amazing feature will make your life a little bit easier because now you do not have to worry about spending time, putting the e-mail where you want them. Now you can have your e-mail do for you.
