How to sort mail in gmail by size

Unfortunately, Gmail does not have a built-in feature to sort emails by size. However, there are a few workarounds to help you sort your emails by size:

Method 1: Use Gmail's "Size" filter

  1. Go to the Gmail settings (gear icon) > Filters and Blocked Addresses.
  2. Click on "Create a new filter".
  3. In the "From" field, enter size: (without quotes).
  4. Click on "Create filter".
  5. In the "Apply the label" dropdown, select "New label" and give it a name (e.g., "Large emails").
  6. Click on "Create".

This will create a filter that labels emails with a size greater than 1 MB (the default size threshold). You can then use this label to sort your emails by size.

Method 2: Use a third-party browser extension

There are several browser extensions available that can help you sort emails by size in Gmail. Here are a few options:

  1. Email Size Sorter: This Chrome extension allows you to sort emails by size, attachment size, and more.
  2. Gmail Size Filter: This Firefox extension adds a "Size" column to your Gmail inbox, allowing you to sort emails by size.
  3. Gmail Manager: This Chrome extension provides various features, including the ability to sort emails by size.

Method 3: Use a script or add-on

If you're comfortable with coding, you can use a script or add-on to sort emails by size. For example, you can use a script like Gmail Size Sorter or Gmail Attachment Size Sorter.

Keep in mind that these methods may have limitations or require some technical expertise. If you're not comfortable with coding or using third-party extensions, you may want to consider using a different email client or service that offers more advanced filtering and sorting options.
