Creating folders in your email account

Overview

Folders are useful for filing emails into groups to help find them later. Combined with Filters, they can be a powerful way of sorting through email as you receive them.

Our email service has a powerful search engine, so you may decide that you don't need folders, but either way, the functionality is there.
