Gmail-Drag and Drop Labels

Use Drag-and-Drop to Move Messages in Gmail

To move an email to a label (removing the message from the current view, except from All Mail) in Gmail:

• Click the handle (a double, dotted, vertical line) just in front of the message you want to move.
• To move multiple messages, make sure they are all checked, then grab any selected message’s handle.
• Hold the mouse button while dragging the message to the desired label.
• If the label to which you want to move is not visible, point to the more link below the label list until all labels appear.
• Release the mouse button.

By dragging and dropping, you can:

• Mark as spam: drag to the Spam label.
• Archive: drag to the All Mail label.
• Delete: drag to the Trash label.
• Star: drag to the Starred label (keeping in mind this will remove the message from the current view).
