Organize your inbox
Switch to labels from folders: In your previous mail program, you might have stored email you want to keep in folders. In Gmail, you use labels to categorize your email. Labels are like folders, but with a twist: you can apply multiple labels to an email, then later find the email by looking in any of its labels.
Organize your inbox
Switch to labels from folders:
• You can also: • Open a label on the left of your Gmail window to see all
email with that label (just like you used to open a folder). • Nest labels within labels, just like you did with folders. • Search for all email with a label. • See labels on email in your inbox to quickly identify
different types of email.

Gmail TipsFind out when someone reads a message you sent-• If you’re sending an important email to someone, find out when they’ve opened it by setting up
a read receipt.
• A read request is sent to every recipient in the To and Cc fields, but not to recipients in the Bcc field, mailing lists, or aliases.
Gmail FAQ
• Your G Suite account has at least 30 GB of storage across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos, so you’ll probably never run out of space.
• To keep your account safe and prevent viruses, Gmail won't accept file attachments that are executable files. There's also a 25 MB size limitation for attachments. However, you can overcome email attachment size limits by attaching files from Drive.
• Messages remain in Trash or Spam for 30 days. After that, Gmail permanently deletes them. However, G Suite administrators can still recover those messages within 25 days after the permanent deletion.
