Google has introduced a new feature for Gmail Labs called Smart Labels. It’s exactly what it sounds like – Google will help you sort certain email automatically. For now, they’ve only offered three use cases: “Notifications” that are important statements from your bank or reminders of your next appointment to see your dominatrix, “Forums” will be tagged to email specifically sent through a message board system, and “bulk” email is classified as email sent to a massive amount of people. (Such as in newsletters. Or horrible, horrible chain mails.) Smart Labels work just like real labels so they’re easily customizable if you’re afraid they’ll get in your way. Otherwise you can just turn them off. Check to see if these features work in the native version of Gmail for Android. [Google]
Awesome!!
Seems too little too late. Everybody that needs it has already set up 700,000 custom filters by now, and those filters are more customisable.
Awesome feature.
Have been doing it manually since so long, though. So I agree with Simon, that they’re too late on this.
Still, better late than never.

How about something useful like a purge all for the gmail app for android. I can’t count the number of times i have to go to the gmail website to delete emails that won’t go away on my phone!
