How to use

‍

This zap triggers when you receive a new email. If you prefer, you can narrow the trigger to certain additional labels (which you could set via Gmail filters).

‍

‍

You can also use a filter in the zap to have this zap only run on certain emails. In this case, we don't want it to run on any emails we send ourselves.

‍

‍

Then there is a delay step. This can be set for anywhere between 1 minute and 4 weeks.

‍

‍

The final step of the zap then removed the "INBOX" label from the message which has the affect of removing it from the inbox and archiving it in Gmail.
