How to Use SaneBox

Getting started with SaneBox

With SaneBox, you will learn to automatically filter your emails, separating important messages from less relevant ones. This guide will help you set up your account and start managing your inbox effectively.

Step 1: Sign up and set up

1. Go to SaneBox's website.
2. Click on the "Start Free Trial" button located on the homepage.
3. Enter your email address and select your email provider (e.g., Gmail).
4. Grant SaneBox permission to access your email account by following the prompts.
5. Choose a subscription plan that suits your needs. A free trial may be available for new users.

Step 2: Your first filtering

1. Once signed in, navigate to the SaneBox dashboard.
2. You will see an overview of your inbox, including categories like SaneLater, SaneBlackHole, and SaneReminders.
3. SaneBox automatically starts filtering your emails. Important emails will appear in your main inbox, while less important ones will go to SaneLater.
4. To view your SaneLater folder, click on "SaneLater" in the left sidebar. Review the emails and drag any important ones back to your main inbox.

Step 3: Get better results

1. To improve filtering, use the SaneBlackHole feature: drag emails you never want to see into this folder. This teaches SaneBox to ignore similar emails in the future.
2. Set up SaneReminders by clicking on the "Reminders" tab in the dashboard. This allows you to receive reminders about important emails.
3. Adjust your settings by going to "Settings" and selecting "SaneBox Settings." Here, you can tweak the frequency of summary emails and notification preferences.

Pro tip

Regularly check your SaneLater folder to ensure important emails aren’t being missed. You can also whitelist important senders by adding them to your SaneBox contacts. This will ensure their emails land in your main inbox.

Common mistake to avoid

Many users forget to review their SaneLater folder frequently. This can lead to missing critical emails. Make it a habit to check this folder daily to keep on top of your important messages.
