How to Create Custom Folders to Organize and Archive Mail in Inbox.com

By , About.com Guide

An Inbox, a Trash and — oh, good — a Spam folder. Inbox.com comes with a number of standard mailboxes that are quite useful (note the Starred folder that automatically collects all the mail you have grated with a green star).

As useful as is it, an Inbox is not for keeping mail, and neither is a Sent Mail folder. If you want to archive your messages — and Inbox.com provides plenty of room for that —, you need dedicated folders. Whether you want to manually sort your mail by topic or recipient, or just throw everything in one big folder (maybe one per year) is up to you. But you need at least one custom folder.

Create Custom Folders to Organize and Archive Mail in Inbox.com

To add a custom folder to Inbox.com:

  • Click Manage Folders in the Email folders list on the left of your Inbox.com screen.
  • Now click New folder.
  • Enter the desired name of your new mailbox.
  • Click OK.
