Let me observe that the “Gmail more efficiently” bit is somewhat painfully dated.
Gmail has changed a fair bit, and some of the instructions are nearly impossible to follow. there is no longer a “GMail Labs” tab; some things that had been experimental (e.g. – multiple inboxes) are now Inbox options, and rather painful to find given that circa-2017 documentation is now just wrong.
