Sort email into views

Describe what belongs in each view, add exact Gmail rules, or use both.
Updated September 18, 2026
01

Choose how you want to sort

Gmail filter rules are included on Free. They match exact details such as a sender, subject, or phrase. Description-based sorting includes 10 emails per day on Free, with unlimited sorting on Mejl Plus. Use either method or both.
02

Create a Gmail filter rule

Open the account menu, select Settings, then choose Automatic sorting. Edit a view and select Add specific rules. Choose what an email must match. Gmail applies the rule to future matching email.
03

Describe what belongs in a view

Open Settings and choose Automatic sorting. Select a view and describe the email that belongs there. For example: “Receipts, invoices, and order confirmations.” Save the instructions for Mejl to sort new matching email into that view.
04

Adjust the sorting later

Return to Automatic sorting to edit a view’s description and rules. Open Other rules for rules that mark mail as read or delete it.

Good to know

Both methods sort future email. Free description-based sorting pauses after 10 emails until midnight UTC; Gmail rules keep working. After reset, sorting resumes for new arrivals. Mail skipped during the pause is not sorted later.
