What's the difference between Inbox and All Mail?
- Inbox: This view shows only the emails that are marked as "unread" or have been recently updated. It's a curated view of your most important emails.
- All Mail: This view shows all emails in your Gmail account, including read and unread emails, as well as emails that are archived or in the trash. It's a comprehensive view of all your emails.
By switching between these two views, you can quickly focus on your most important emails or review all your emails at once.
