Jeff Nadeau - Beyond Lektora & Microsoft

I subscribe to a couple of mailing lists. Therefore, on my desktop, I was using some filters to move emails around into different folders. Now that I have an iPhone, that method doesn't work anymore because there is no filtering possible in the MobileEmail app. My iPhone inbox was cluttered and almost unsuable.

I devised a strategy with the free Google Apps for domains. I opened an acount for my jfnadeau.com domain and activated the Gmail part. Then, the only thing I had to do was to change the MX record of my DNS.

I now have a super web-interface to view my Inbox in a web browser (standard gmail) and instead of using Apple's Mail filters, I now use the Gmail ones. Each Gmail filter creates a separate IMAP folder so my iPhone mail is now as well organized as my regular desktop and web client. Neat!

Also, gmail IMAP is super fast. Much much faster than my web host!
