Set your inbox behavior (categorization settings)

Updated this week

Fyxer automatically sorts your inbox into 8 smart categories. Your Categorization Settings control which emails stay in your inbox and which ones Fyxer files away for you.

This allows you to keep your inbox focused on the messages you care about most.



How Categorization Works

Each Fyxer category has a checkbox in your settings:

  • Checked - Emails in this category skip the inbox and go directly to their folder/label

  • Unchecked - Emails stay in your inbox and are tagged with the category

You choose how much or how little Fyxer hides from your inbox.



How to Adjust Your Categorization Settings

  1. Open your Fyxer Dashboard

  2. Go to Categorization Settings

  3. Check the categories you want Fyxer to file away automatically

  4. Uncheck the categories you want to stay visible in your inbox

  5. Click Update preferences to save your changes

Your inbox will update instantly with new incoming emails.



Recommended Setup

Most users choose:

  • Checked: Comment, Notifications, Meeting Updates, Awaiting Reply, Actioned, Marketing

  • Unchecked: FYI and To Respond (important messages stay visible)

This keeps your inbox focused on emails that require attention while still letting Fyxer organize everything else behind the scenes.



Tips

  • You can change these settings anytime - Fyxer adjusts immediately

  • If your inbox feels too quiet, uncheck more categories

  • If it feels noisy, check more categories to let Fyxer do more filtering
