Flag, archive, and mark messages as read or unread

00:08

To help you manage your messages,

00:10

the Inbox has three functions available: flagging,

00:13

archiving, and marking as read or unread.

00:16

To perform any one of these functions,

00:18

your first step is to hover over the message header in question,

00:22

at which point you'll see three icons appear.

00:27

To flag a message, click the flag on the right hand side.

00:31

To reverse this, just click the flag again.

00:34

Archiving a message can be done by the archive button in the middle.

00:38

You can also mark a message as read or unread, using the envelope icon on the left.

00:47

Note that these three icons are also available at

00:50

the top of any message that you view.

00:54

Once you've flagged or archived a message,

00:56

they can be found in that respective message type filter within the inbox.

01:02

Note that unlike a flagged message,

01:04

an archived message will be removed from the inbox tab

01:07

and moved to your message archive.

01:12

To unarchive it,

01:12

you'll need to find it in this filter

01:16

and click the icon above it again

01:18

to

01:19

unarchive.

01:20

Lastly, anytime you mark something as unread,
