When important emails come in, do you always have time to deal with them right away? Neither do we. Here’s how we save them for quick retrieval later:
How to save important e-mails
This tip was originally taught on Apple Mail, but you can use it in Gmail too! Just substitute the word “flag” for “star” when you see it:
1. Open an email on Apple Mail.
2. Click on the flag icon on the bar on the upper right of the email (see image).
3. Now, your email should have a red flag appear on it, and it should also appear in your “Flagged” mailbox (look for the column on the left side of your Apple Mail window).
(Note: If you don’t see the column with the different email boxes, on the top menu bar, click on View > Show Mailbox List.)
4. To remove the flag, simply click the flag icon again (on the top bar, upper right side).
