Archiving

What does it mean to archive?

Archiving means you’ve made a decision.
You’ve read the message, handled it (or decided not to), and cleared it from your inbox.

The email isn’t gone. It’s just not in your way anymore.

Why it matters

Your inbox should help you focus, not weigh you down.
Archiving is how you create space in your screen, and in your mind.

You don’t need to delete.
You just need to move on.

What happens when you archive

• The email disappears from your inbox

• It moves to the Archive tab

• It stays searchable and threaded

• Labels and summaries remain intact

How to archive

You can archive emails in a few ways:

• Hover over a single email and press E

• Use multi-select to select multiple emails, then press E or use the Archive tooltip

That’s it. Just archive and move on.

How to bring emails back

To move an archived email back to your inbox:

1. Go to the Archive tab

2. Select the email(s)

3. Press Z

This restores them to your inbox. It works for single or multiple emails at once.

Coming soon: Smart bulk archiving

We’re working on a feature to let you archive entire groups of low-priority emails in one click.

Start clearing faster, without thinking too hard.

📌 Tip
Inbox Zero isn’t a myth. It’s just a habit.
Archive freely, trust your tools, and let your inbox breathe.
