Tip 9: Star important messages

Gmail makes every effort to recognize which emails (individual messages and threads) are more important to you than others. 'Importance Markers' are frequently used to highlight them (a yellow arrow right next to the star). 

Gmail had markers within the interface until recently that explained why an email was marked as important, as opposed to the "important according to our secret sauce" that it now states.

While Gmail does a good job of appropriately marking the most important emails, it does make mistakes.

Make sure to tag essential messages manually to help the algorithm perform better for you. That way, the system will ultimately pick up on it. Manually adding and removing Importance Markers is one way to accomplish this. Starring messages is another technique to accomplish this.

Individual messages in a single thread are marked with Stars in Gmail, whereas entire email threads are marked with Importance Markers. Using stars and importance markers to structure your Gmail searches will save you time.

Tip 10: Mute conservation

If you're fed up with being sucked into email exchanges between coworkers or customers that don't necessarily impact you? Then Gmail's 'Mute Conversations' function is for you.

When you mute a conversation in Gmail, you won't get any more messages about it in your inbox. All emails added to the conversation after you've muted it will be saved in your Gmail account, but they will be archived automatically. You can still look up the chat and read fresh messages.

To do this, you need to follow these steps:

• Open the conversation and click “More”
• Choose “Mute”

A chat can always be unmuted. To unmute, simply look for the muted conversation in the email thread and eliminate the "Muted" label.
