Outlook uses two ways to organize your emails: folders and categories. Fyxer AI works with both to help keep your inbox clean and easy to scan.
Folders
Found in your Outlook sidebar
Emails are physically moved into folders
Emails can only live in one folder at a time (e.g. Inbox or “1: To Respond”)
Help file emails away and clear your main inbox
Categories
Appear as color-coded tags on emails
Do not move the email - they just label it
Emails can have multiple categories and still stay in your inbox
How Fyxer AI Uses Both
Fyxer tags every email with a category (e.g. “1: To Respond” in red). What happens next depends on your preferences:
Checked box = Email moves to the matching folder
Unchecked box = Email stays in your inbox with a colored label
Example: An email tagged "1: To Respond" will:
Stay in your inbox with a red label if that category box is checked
Be moved to the “1: To Respond” folder if the category box is unchecked
