That sounds a lot like what I do using 'labels'. Other than the position on the screen, what's the difference?

- criley2 8y agoInbox rollup: Set it up once, magically works forever Gmail label: Create a filter for a label. It works only for that. New emails need to go in. Manually and annoyingly update the filter. Works only for that. New emails need to go in. Manually and annoyingly update... You get the point. If I went and bought something from a new store and got it shipped, the receipt automatically appear in "purchases" in inbox. I didn't have to manually update a filter for this one new address. It just worked. Back on gmail, gmail treats that new email as if it has no idea what it is. So into the main box it goes until I manually create rules for this one specific case. I shouldn't have to manually create a rule for every single email address that ever sends me an email. It's an astronomical amount of work. And now that we know that Google/Inbox was 100% capable of auto-filtering, the idea that we are being transported to the stone age of email is insanity.
- radarsat1 8y agoSorry, I was responding to, > create custom tabs via filters which as you say, labels are created by filters. I have no idea how "Inbox rollups" work if they are different than that and than the tabs in gmail, since I haven't used it.
