Organize Inbox (or Facebook) E-mails Into Different Folders... Automatically

  Having problem with your inbox that's accumulating e-mails equivalent to Mount. Everest already? And now you're trying to figure out how to manage them. 2 thoughts always comes to mind to an average e-mail user : Do I constantly check my e-mails so I can mark them "Read"? or so that I can avoid unnecessary e-mails by deleting them? I say, is it too much to ask for both? Plus another feature, which is sorting them into folders, AND doing ALL this automatically? Is that hard? I think not.

  In Hotmail, or now called Windows Live Mail, there is are options which most users have never thought of before : 1. Sorting all your e-mails into different folders... 2. Automatically.

  
Step 1                                 Step 2
 

Step 3                                      Step 4
 
Step 5                                         Step 6

  The steps are simple (if not so, the purpose of this blog would've been gone) :


  1. Sign in to your Hotmail (make sure to click SSL on the bottom left to avoid spam)
  2. Click "Options" > "More Options"
  3. Under "Customize your e-mail", choose "Automatically sort e-mail into folders"
  4. Click "New Filter"
  5. Choose where in the e-mail you want to categorize accordingly into the folder. Ex: categorize sk&83njks@facebookmail.com into a "Facebook" folder, so what you do is select "From address" and type "facebookmail.com" in the empty space for you to type on the right. (you should be able to understand the other options like "From name" "Subject"...)
  6. Scroll down > choose "New Folder" & type name of the folder > "Save"...& done! (or choose "Delete these messages" if you never want to see them again)
  You should see a new filter for what you have choosen, and on your Hotmail main page, you will now see the new folders you have created below "Inbox".

  If you just want to sort your current inbox mails into folders for now, you can create the folders first like this :
  1. In the left panel where the "Inbox" word is, scroll down and click "Manage Folders"
  2. In "Manage Folders", the buttons "New", "Create", "Delete" are on the top > "Save"
  3. After saving, you can just drag the e-mails in "Inbox" to the folders you want to put in on the left.
