We will assume that cleaning and setting up the folders has already been done as that is easier on a computer and should synchronise to your mobile device.
To turn off new email notifications on Android, go to the Email app, choose More and then Settings. Scroll down to Notifications settings and turn off Email notifications.
Using your mobile device to empty your inbox can be a great addition to your speedmailing habit. I often crunch my new emails when I have to wait somewhere and don’t feel like taking my laptop out.
How do we apply the process on a mobile phone? First of all, we use the same logic, with the exception that a two-minute rule might become a 20-second rule. Anything worth typing out properly can be moved to the ‘Do This Week’ folder and will be taken care of when back at the office.
So we start at the top, open the email to judge what to do with it and then use the Delete or Move icon to move the email to the folder of choice.
You might find that the list of folders in your Android device is annoyingly long, which can be caused by deleted folders that are still in your Deleted Items. To resolve this, empty your Deleted Items in Outlook by right-clicking on the folder and choosing Empty Folder.
