Gmail Specific: Messy Mode for Superhuman

By default, SaneBox is in “Clean Mode”. This mode leaves only important email in your Inbox. This is the only mode available to non-Gmail users.

  • In Clean Mode, only important email will be delivered to your Inbox. Other email will be moved to your @SaneLater folder. Don’t worry, we never delete any of your email. SaneBox simply asks Gmail to move them to the appropriate Sane folder, such as @SaneLater.

For SuperHuman users

We do have a Messy Mode that is available for those users that are concerned about missing an email the second it comes into their Inbox. This mode does defeat many of the advantages of SaneBox. In Messy Mode, we leave all your email in your Inbox and simply label some @SaneBox and others @SaneLater.

  • You would then need to book mark your @SaneBox folder and @SaneLater folder and use those when you want to be focused and get a moment of peace from the usual Inbox insanity.
  • To train in Messy Mode , you add the correct label to an email. So you would add @SaneLater to a @SaneBox email. Or you might add @SaneBox to an @SaneLater email.
