Gmail is organized by labels, not by folders
: By tagging messages with labels, you
can organize your conversations in many different ways. Whereas in other email
applications, each message can only be stored in one folder. For example, with Gmail
you can label a conversation with your mother about your brother’s birthday present with
both “Mom” and “Dave.” Later, you can look for the all messages containing either label.
Using folders, you'd have to store the message in the “Mom” folder or the “Dave” folder,
not both.

Gmail for the phone is optimized for mobile
: Some features are only accessible on
your computer browser. The best place to organize and learn about Gmail is the Web.
For example, you can't use the Gmail application on the device to create the labels and
filters that you use to organize your messages, but you can label a message. Gmail on
the Web offers complete information about the service, so it’s the best place to learn
about all of the features of Gmail.

Gmail is for Gmail
: Of course you can use Gmail to send email to any email address,
and anyone can send email to you at your Gmail address. But if you want to read
messages from another email service provider (using your AOL, Yahoo!, or other email
account), you must use the Email application. (See
