Method 3: Using a Third-Party Gmail Add-on
There are many third-party add-ons available that can help you automate email filtering and movement in Gmail. Some popular options include:
- Sanebox: A paid add-on that uses machine learning to filter out unwanted emails and move them to a specific folder.
- Boomerang: A paid add-on that allows you to schedule emails to be sent at a later time, as well as filter and move emails based on specific criteria.
