An observation about gmail

This app seems geared to the unorganized. I see no way to create sub folders. I have imported many emails from my old email address by pulling them from the old inbox and classing them as archive.

I think to Google's credit, their amazing search knowhow might be why one big bucket is used.

Do you mean setting up "LABELS" ? That is what GMAIL call folders for their mail app.
You set up a LABEL, check off the mail you want to go there and then archive it.
Once labels are set up, you can set up filters t make the mail go there first and bypass the inbox.

Thanks all for that feedback!

Another thing that kind of makes labels better than folders is that a message can fall into multiple labels.

Like as an example key people that I deal with a lot via email have their own label for their name. Then key companies have labels. Then other sorting I need is also done. One message typically falls into multiple labels for me.

Gmail does take some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it's very robust.

You can also setup "filtering" to very easily forward messages meeting certain criteria to be labeled automatically, forwarded, deleted, etc.

With our corporate e-mail using Gmail, I don't delete any emails unless it's obvious spam or something I know I'm not interested in. This has come in very handy with our monthly carrier billing disputes You'd be surprised how much trouble everyone goes through with carrier billing. CDRs are always a mess for everyone.

When I open gmail I notice almost 100% CPU Usage
It goes to normal on the home page ......

The CPU usage looks normal on Vista AMD64 2800 at home.
On work's Celeron P4 using XP it maxes out and goes away when I kill the gmail page
Some odd firewall thing getting it in a tissy? (We use a proxy at work for www.)

Another look at the CPU usage on gmail, then killing the web page ....
