SEARCHINGSearching is easy – you can search for
anything you want – be it a name, email address keyword, etc. It does not allow for searching part of a word, though. Example – I could search for lighthouse and get any instances of the word lighthouse. However, if I search for light, I will not get the words lighthouse – just light.

LABELS Gmail doesn’t use folders, it uses labels. Emails can have multiple labels. How do
you store a single message in two folders?
Removing a label will not remove the messages from Gmail
You can create a new label from Labels/Manage Labels or Labels/Create New (if you have a message open)
