Full Version: Is there an email inbox organiser?

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for an application that can assist with organising email inbox's and subfolders. I have heard that you can get an application that will sort out your emails for you where you can create subfolders for e.g one titled 'Amazon' and as soon as you receive an email from Amazon it goes straight to the Amazon subfolder instead of your inbox.

Does anyone know of any and/ or recommend one?
What you using mail client you using Outlook? Gmail? Thunderbird? etc

None right now it is for a friend of mine, He was using an outdated version of Windows Live Mail (which we all know isn't supported now) So after upgrading him to Windows 10 his emails didn't sync his subfolders to any email client. He had it set up in a way on Windows Live Mail that if he received an email from Amazon it would go to a made subfolder titled Amazon etc.

After adding his email accounts to mailbird for e.g. the only thing that would sync is his inbox, there were no subfolders.
well what you can do is setup Thunderbird then ask him if you like the user experience of Thunderbird
The set up of having his emails going straight to subfolders automatically is how he prefers to work, unfortunately.
ok base on what you are saying you want to create filters so when an email comes in from company 1 it would get Filter to company 1 folder

then you can create filter name Big little so when an Email comes into form Big little it will go big little folder

Yes, he had a set up similar to Windows Live Mail and that's how he prefers to work. I was told there was a piece of software that can do it for you but google searches didn't reveal anything to me.
As a workaround, you could ask your friend to log in to his email account through a browser and create the folders with those rules from within the account

Once that's done, the rules should work with just about any email client
