Notes

I wish Blackberry Hub+ supported Outlook “Other” and Archiving in general. I get a lot of email from constantly changing groups of collaborators, students, and future prospects. Not to mention the avalanche of receipts, reminders, newsletters, and notifications.
- Google Inbox is pretty good at sorting Priority / Inbox / Low Priority / Spam email
- Microsoft Office separates email into Focused / Other / Spam.
- Blackberry Hub+ has only 2 levels of email: general/spam.
Outlook for Android app can recognize Priority vs. All email, and I wish Blackberry Hub+ would do so.
