                                              Everyone with an email id gets number of mails by subscribing to kind of forums,blogs or even say facebook(notifications),
which may be very useful and important or sometimes may be useless .,  Locating your important mail from the hundreds or thousands of mails and reading it becomes a hard task. Also, the inbox will be filled with unsorted mails which sometimes may be left unread unknowingly.So to get rid of these overheads, Gmail has provided a facility to sort out (group)the mails by subject,sender etc..using filters.

steps to create labels using filters : (Updated)  

  • First of all open the mail for which you are going to create a filter.

  • Now,click the drop down menu which is located exactly beside the "reply"button and click on Filter messages like this.

  • A small new window opens showing the details of sender (mail) and at the bottom right you'll find an option saying create filter with this search , go click it.

Name it and don't forget to mark "also apply the filter to matching messages".
  •  click on Create Filter. That's it, a filter of your desired mails is created with a label.

  • In the same way you can create many such filters which reduces your time to go through whole inbox.The created filters appear as shown in the image below.



                                                                                 
And coming to advantages of these filters,you can not only empty your inbox safely  but also track useless mails that are to be ignored or deleted completely.
