Gmail
Gmail has recently made a change that makes a computer chooses which messages you see instead of you choosing. Good news- there are ways you can fix this so YOU get to decide which emails you see.
If you don’t want to miss important messages, training, updates, videos, announcements,or anything that YOU want to receive from me or anyone else, follow one of the solutions below!
GMAIL Option 1: Take Control!
Place email in Primary tab
The best way to ensure that our emails appear in the Primary tab is to manually set this up.
Here are two different ways you can ensure that an email will show up in your inbox.
I. Drag and Drop
If our message didn’t appear in your inbox, it probably is in your promotions tab, just because we are a newsletter with an unsubscribe option. The easiest way to move an email in your inbox is to left-click and hold on the email to drag it from the Promotions tab over to the Primary tab.
Releasing the mouse drops the email into the newly selected tab. Once dropped,
Gmail displays a yellow box asking if you want to make this change permanent.

thePrimary tab going forward.
II. Right-Click
Similar to the drag and drop option, you can right-click on the email in some browsers to bring up a small list of options. Click the Move to tab option and select the tab you want to move the email to.
