Look for the “Apply the Label” option and create a new label for this sender, presumably with their name as the label name. At the bottom of the box, click on the Create Filter button. Make sure the email address you want is in the From field and that the other fields are empty or set to their defaults. If you would like to apply a label, go back to your advanced search box. This is similar to a sort, in that it shortcuts the search process, but it again won’t display multiple senders at a time without a more advanced search. If you create a label to apply to all of those messages, in the future you will be able to just click the label to see all messages the label applies to. Alternatively, you can apply a label to the emails. You can simply use the search results as your sort, and repeat the search any time you want to find all messages from that sender. This brings up a bunch of different options, one of them being “find emails from ”. This won’t be the narrow search you’re looking for.Ī shortcut here is to find an email from the sender and right click it. Remember that if you just type the email address in the search bar, you are using the “has the words” search type, which will find emails from the sender as well as emails that use that sender’s email address in the body. Since we’re trying to sort by sender, we want the specific sender. Keep in mind that simply typing their name will find all emails with that name in it, which can include other companies that use similar names, or multiple co-workers with the same first name, and other conflicts. Find the “from” field at the top and paste in or type in the email address of the sender you want to find. In that same search bar, click the drop-down to open advanced search options. Type the name into the search bar at the top, find a message from the sender, and find their specific email address. The other option, if you don’t have a recent email, is to simply remember the email address, or even just the name of the sender. For example, “Fangamer Mailroom” is the display name for as an email address. What you’re looking for here is the actual email address the sender uses. If you’re in the email, you can see a drop-down triangle up by the sender name, which will show you a whole bunch of information about the sender and email transaction as a whole. You can either hover over the display name of the sender, or you can click into the email. If the sender you want to find has sent you an email recently, find that email in your inbox. In order to do this, log into your Gmail account. Instead, you can run a search that will show you all of the messages from a particular sender. You cannot sort your entire inbox or entire email account by sender. If you want to sort your Gmail inbox or your archived emails by sender name, you have to essentially make use of the Gmail search feature. However, there may be some workarounds or some alternatives you can use to accomplish the same effect.
Unlike other email clients, there are no tabs you can click to sort by date, by name, or by subject line. Unfortunately, Gmail does not have any other sorting features by default.
The thing is, none of these sorts are sorting your inbox by name, by date, or by subject line. Priority First also relies on filters you set up.īetween these two displays, you can sort your inbox in a lot of different ways. Starred First shows you messages from starred conversations or that have been starred through filters at the top. Unread First prioritizes unread messages, making it easier to filter through new messages without having to scroll through several pages. Important First puts the messages Gmail determines important at the top of your inbox.
Default is your chronological sorted inbox. Each of these rely on a different Gmail feature. The types are Default, Important First, Unread First, Starred First, and Priority First.
Anything coming from Facebook, Twitter, or other social networks will be sorted into the Social tab, for example. If you choose more than one tab, you will have some basic sorting between inboxes. If you deselect all categories, you will have one central inbox with everything that isn’t archived or filtered in it. Click on the Inbox tab, and then check whichever categories you want displayed as tabs in your inbox. To choose which tabs display, click the gear icon in the upper right, then click Settings. You can choose tabs like Primary, Social, Promotions, and so on. By default, Gmail sorts your inbox in one of two ways, and it depends on the tabs you have chosen.
