When you are sorting through thousands, if not tens of thousands of email messages, finding the exact one you want gets a little difficult. Sure, you have Apple’s amazing Spotlight technology waiting on hand to help you out, but if you want to compile large lists of messages with a certain similarity, Smart Folders is the best option.
The image to the right of this paragraph is the list of the current Smart Folders I have set up, I plan to ad more after this very post is finished, but this is my basic setup. The “Today” folder is very handy so I can see all the messages I have received today, and I have many other folders like “WordPress” which shows all the comments posted on my blog.
Here are a few ideas for smart, Smart Folders.
- All Flagged Messages
- Unread Mail
- Today’s Messages
- Current Year
- Current Week
What smart folders do you have set up?
