Home is where you start in Fluxmail. Rather than a flat list of all of your emails, it shows the messages that need your attention and tucks the rest away until you ask for them.
How Home is organized
Flux AI analyzes every incoming email and surfaces the ones worth your time, each with a short badge that tells you why it's there:
- Needs reply means someone is waiting on a response from you.
- Needs follow-up means you already sent a message and it's worth checking back.
- Important covers time-sensitive or high-value mail, like a login code or a note from someone you care about.
Each card shows one badge for its priority. For Important mail, a short note explains why Flux AI flagged it.
Priority and All
At the top of Home you can switch between two views:
- Priority (the default) shows only the mail Flux AI flagged, with the badges above.
- All shows your whole inbox to work through, with the priority items still sorted to the top. Switch to it when you want to clear everything, not just the highlights. Non-priority mail, like a receipt or a routine notification, lives here.
Each tab shows a count of what's waiting. Newsletters and other bulk mail stay out of both views; they're grouped on the Newsletters shelf instead.
Working the queue
You can act on a message from Home:
- Mark done to archive it and clear it from your queue.
- Mute to keep future mail from that sender out of Home.
- Reply to the conversation right from the card.
- Snooze to bring it back at a better time.
- Add a task to turn it into a to-do with an optional due date.
On mobile, you can also swipe a card instead of tapping a button: swipe right to mark it done, or swipe left to mute the sender.
Once you handle a message (reply, mark done, snooze, or trash), it leaves Home right away, so the queue always reflects what's actually left. Nothing is gone, though: anything that's left Home is still in your mailbox, and you can find it again anytime from Search.
