Today. 3:51pm EST. Promotional folder in Gmail. All from Informa have been going there lately. iPsos, too.
I'm a gmail user also - You can setup filters and labels to tag all emails from MSCs, making them easy to find. Use the asterisk wildcard in place of the sender name before the @ symbol in the email address - and it will flag every one from that company. For informa's emails, it would be: *@informa.com.
To create a new filter, use the search box at the top of the gmail program. (Existing filters may be edited through the settings menu)
I created a filter that will apply a label to the emails, skip the inbox, and avoid the spam filter. After the filter is setup, you can go back in and edit it to add additional companies. You must type OR in all caps with a space between the email addresses. For example: the From field in the filter will look something like this: *@informa.com OR *@msc2.com OR *@msc3.com
Now all I do is click on the label on the left side of my screen and it shows me every email that was sent from a MSC. Plus, it stays out of my main inbox.
