Subject: Fall Term is Paid (for now)

Good day,
This note is to let you know that you are registered for classes and your schedule has been “paid” either with a legal means of payment,  with financial aid, or through a contract.

I write to let you know that you are registered and paid, lest  you think you are not, and thus, expect your schedule to be removed at some point.  As it stands right now, we are expecting you to attend fall term.

If you agree with this assessment, you need not write  back.  Just start classes on time and continue with the term.

If you do not plan to attend this fall, please remove your  courses, or let me know and  I’ll do it.  There are many student seeking seats and if you aren’t coming, it  would be good  to open them up.

Otherwise, thank you for  registering and taking care of payment, and we look forward to serving you this fall.

Please let me know if I can  help you with anything.

Regards,
Steve H.
Registrar

First thought when I heard about it? “Oh, now I can stop forwarding my student account and other Gmail based accounts to my main account and just access them all from the same space.” You know, 9 accounts were given to the Christian, but in secret another ring was forged…

I was only mildly disappointed.

What Multiple Inboxes does is allow you to add up to 5 extra panes to Gmail displaying emails based on simple filters. You can show starred items (“is: starred”), or items from a particular label (“label: mom”).  You also have the option of inserting the panes above, below or to the right of the main pane (as seen above).

As of right now there is no list or link to list of filters that you can use on the settings page, so you’ll either need to have the filter syntax memorized, or do things my way. Switch over to the filters settings, create a quick filter, and then copy the result. Then switch back to Multiple Inboxes and paste.

How useful is it? Personally, I think it gets in the way of productivity. If I’m working on one stack of emails under one label, I don’t want to be distracted by the incoming email popping up in the main window.

I’ll admit that it does lend itself to a few applications. You could, for example, show the Bob’s that you have 5 different bosses droning on about TPS reports.
