Subject: Re: Looking for mail app that can filter messages

Okay, now I understand. I was talking about message rules. I wish the mail app 
and other iOS mail apps gave more flexibility with different types of message 
rules. I have set up message rules in the Gmail web view, and that has helped 
me keep my mail organized throughout the last many years since many rules have 
certain labels which are automatically applied to messages when they arrive. 
Again, it would be awesome if the same feature set was in the native mail app, 
but oh well.

Kind regards,
Wayne

And that is the difference between a "filter" and a "rule". If you want certain 
messages to automatically get sorted to a particular folder than that has to be 
done via a message rule. And of course if you use Gmail then it's not even 
folders but labels, e.g. a message gets a "Viphone" label and practically this 
is more of less like it getting put in a "Viphone" folder.

By filters, I am assuming that you mean message rules, where certain messages 
would go in particular folders depending on how the rule is set up.  Is this 
correct?



Now the iOS mail app does filter messages, but not in the way I think you are 
talking about.  When in a folder, like your inbox, at the bottom of the screen, 
you will find a toggle filter button.  If you double tap this, this will turn 
on the iOS filtering, and another filter button will appear.  That button will 
let you choose the type of filtering you want.  In the iOS mail app, you can 
filter by things like, by messages that are unread, messages with attachments, 
messages that are flagged, and messages just received today.



Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think by using the word filtering 
without giving any more details has given the wrong idea on what you are trying 
to do.



As far as using message rules to filter your messages to different folders, you 
are correct, you can not set them up in the iOS mail app.  And actually, I do 
not know of any iOS app that lets you actually set them up.  It has been stated 
on list before that you can set message rules up on the GMail web site, and 
then they should show up in any iOS app that you use.  Since you have said that 
you have already tried this with no success makes me wonder.  I might look into 
this myself to see what is going on.



Again, if you are not trying to set up message rules, please let us know.



Chris

Please explain how to create filters in Apple native iOS app. I have created 
filters in the web-based version of Gmail but am having trouble doing so in 
Apple's Mail.

Can't filter messages? Please explain. Apple Mail can create a filter based on 
any property a message has.

Greetings. I am searching for a mail app that can filter my Gmail messages. I 
have tried the native iOS mail app, Outlook, and Gmail. All of them have 
certain things I like and other things I could do without. For instance, the 
native mail app cannot filter messages. Though Gmail can filter incoming mail, 
the process for creating the filter could be much easier and straightforward. 
Also, there are not nearly as many items available in the rotor actions in 
Gmail as there are in Mail. I have downloaded a few apps from the App Store, 
but haven't found any that are accessible. All thoughts and opinions welcome.
