# Outlook folders & badges

> How SuperInbox organizes Outlook with folders by default, and optional badges.

### Outlook organization in a nutshell

Outlook supports two systems to organize mail. By default, SuperInbox uses folders (most common Outlook workflow).

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Folders (default)">
    Exclusive location: a thread lives in one folder at a time. Moving a thread to a folder removes it from Inbox. Supports a clear hierarchy of folders/subfolders.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Categories / Badges">
    Visual color tags: a thread can have multiple badges. They do not move emails; location stays the same. Great for scanning and search.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

### How SuperInbox fits this system

* **Default categories**: we create three folders — `To respond`, `FYI`, `Marketing` (your existing structure is preserved)
* **Automatic sorting**: new emails are analyzed and sent to the most relevant category
* **Personalize**: when setting up your categories, you can use badges, folders or combine both.

### Plans & settings

* Free plan: the 3 default folders are applied automatically and cannot be changed.
* Paid plans: create, rename, or replace categories; choose folder, badge, or hybrid per category in <u>Settings → Inbox → Categorization</u>.
