Gmail is one of the best email services around the world. It is developed by Google. It is supported on various Mobile devices (including iOS devices and Android devices) and almost all the web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, etc.

Users can enjoy 15 gigabytes of storage space for free in Gmail. If you find that the space of your Gmail is running out, you can delete useless emails or empty trash to free up space. However, you might care more about how to make emails go to a specific folder Gmail so that you can manage them in category, especially when you have a lot of emails to deal with.
