How To Archive With Gmail

One of the great things about Gmail is that it uses IMAP. IMAP is far better than POP3 because IMAP allows email to be marked read or unread and have folders exist on the server so when you read, change or move something from one program or computer, all other programs are updated. (I know that doesn’t fully explain it, but whatever.)

So using the iPhone’s built-in email program is almost as good as usin’ Gmail directly online. And there’s even a way to archive, star and move items to spam and to different lables.

To archive a message, select your message(s) and move them to the “All Mail” folder.

To access all mail, move into the “All Mail” folder.

To mark a message as spam, select your message(s) and move them to the “Spam” folder.

To access / delete spam messages, navigate to the “Spam” folder.

You can mark or unmark messages starred by moving messages in or out of the “Starred” folder.

Gmail creates folders for all labels you have set up in Gmail, so you’ll find folders with the name if each label in your email app. You can move, read, delete, ect, messages for these labels by doing it with these folders.

And there ya go. Nice, ain’t it?

Peace, J
