Multiple labels may be placed on each e-mail making the content more relevant and easier to retrieve. By using labels in combination with filters, I am able to automatically sort and label (file) most of my e-mail before it arrives in my in-box. I'll read and delete and save those of interest in a file. Act on the e-mail.
