Year-End Wrap:Declutter Your Inbox Using Email Filters

Year-End Wrap:Declutter Your Inbox Using Email Filters

Ping!—an email drops in. And another. And another!

It's finally that time of the year when your inbox will be bursting with messages from team members, clients, and marketing agents, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and distracted. Sounds familiar?

                                              

Now imagine this: A clutter-free inbox, where important emails are automatically sorted, while the rest - newsletters, promotions, and low-priority messages - are neatly filtered out and tucked away. No more scrolling endlessly, no more missing deadlines, and no more email overload. Now, doesn’t that sound like the kind of inbox we all have been dreaming of?

So, here's the solution to achieve that easily : Zoho Mail's Email Filters. 

Filter Emails for a Better Inbox

With Zoho Mail's Email Filters, you can automate the sorting and prioritization of incoming/outgoing messages based on specific criteria and provide a follow-up action for the emails. 

This allows you to reduce clutter, and ensure that important emails are never missed. Whether you are filtering emails by sender, subject, or content, Zoho Mail makes it easy to create filters that streamline your email management process.

Create Email Filters

All incoming and outgoing emails of your inbox will be processed by your Filters. Follow the steps mentioned below to create filters:
  1. Login to Zoho Mail.
  2. Navigate to Settings and Go to Filters.
  3. Click on New Filter after selecting the Outgoing/Incoming Emails Filter tab.
  4. Enter the required details in the Create Filter pop up and click Save.

A Clutter-Free Inbox, a Stress-Free you! To know more about Email Filters, refer here.

Note:

If multiple mailboxes have been configured as POP/ IMAP accounts, select the required account using the account switcher on the left pane and go to Settings > Filters. The Filters page's upper-right corner will show the account for which the filter has been set up.
