How to filter and hide MailReach emails in your inbox [Gmail / Office 365]

If you send campaigns from secondary mailboxes and redirect the replies to your customers' (or sales reps), we have a dedicated guide to help you prevent warming emails to be forwarded to their inbox (Gmail).


TL;DR

  • By default, MailReach emails are hidden from your mailbox and stored in a folder named "To Follow", but it can't be 100% reliable (that's normal) and it can take some time.
  • In this guide, you'll be guided to set up a filter to hide the emails and redirect them without any delay and with more reliability.
  • It should take you 3 minutes.


Step 1 : copy your warm up content code in the settings of your email account in MailReach


  1. In your MailReach account, select your email account and go in its settings
  2. Find "Your warming content code" and copy the code (include the "-" if there's one)
