Busycontacts and airmail12/16/2023 ![]() At the same time, I use tags in the mail client to mark items to-answer, to-do, to-do-urgent, to-read, to-print, to-discuss, is-reference, etc. In ToDoIst, I can easily look ahead and reschedule if it is overdue. Those tasks have a back-link to emails, so with a simple click I can open those. My mail client (MailMate) has a nice integration with ToDoIst, so anything that needs to be taken care on a specific day later on, I just insert as a task into ToDoIst and when the day comes, I see it. I used to use zero-inbox approach when Eudora was my mail client, but when I had to switch from POP to IMAP, I switched the approach to pretty much what was described in the article. I don’t use snoozing as a way to fake an unread mailbox, though. Occasionally somebody will ask me to do something at a future time and I will snooze the email until that time, rather than manually creating a timed reminder. I snooze travel notifications for a week before the trip. I snooze delivery notices for the day of delivery. I process my bills on Mondays, so I snooze all bills, invoices, etc., for Monday mornings. ![]() I use snooze in a way that I think the author would approve. I believe that apps like AirMail and Outlook do the same thing with messages.Īs for finding snoozed emails, all of these apps that I have used - Gmail, InBox, Outlook - have a special mailbox label or folder for snoozed or scheduled messages. The Google InBox app is better it marks the message unread and puts it into your primary mailbox. FWIW, snoozing an email in the Gmail app (or on the gmail website) returns the message to the top of the list when the snooze period runs out, and it also includes a message on the list of messages telling you when the message was snoozed.
