- tyingq 7y agoAll labels might actually be better.
- huhtenberg 7y agoFolders can be implemented by having a set of labels of which only one can be assigned to any given message. Then use folder names/paths as these labels and, voila, you got folders. So perhaps it's something that is coming...
- bad_user 7y agoExcept everything will get duplicated in Archive ;-)
- bad_user 7y agoGmail does not have a mix of labels and folders. It's all labels in Gmail.
- slightwinder 7y agoGMail has a feature to emulate hierachies from labels, basically folders. Maybe that's what he meant.
- wodenokoto 7y agoYou're right. The "move message" icon is, however, of a folder[1], so I guess over time I came to the misunderstanding that I was working with folders!
