What is the label thing in PMs?
« on: March 06, 2009, 12:35:39 PM »
In my personal messages page, there is something called labels, and I can't figure out what it is.  Is it used for organizing PMs some how?  Because since I'm planning on keeping all of my PMs from now on and not deleting any, an organization toll would be great :P

Never used it, but I believe you can use it to organise your messages.

For example label all PM's that have to do with recruitment, vent, etc, etc.

Think of "labels" as "folders" in most email readers....

I use them as follows (to catalog/archive my PMs):

0) First you must create your "labels" under "Manage labels." (E.g. Create a label "XYZ.")

1) Read/reply w/e to the PM.... When no longer needed in "inbox:"

2) Check the box at the far right of that(those) PM's, then select "add label: XYZ"

3) Then select "Remove label: Inbox".

4) You've now MOVED THAT PM into the "folder" ("label") "XYZ!"

You can view the contents of each "label" by selecting its name from the left-hand list, under "Labels."
