Currently broken! Folders4Gmail stopped working because Gmail made some changes to their labels. Check this site in a couple of days for an update.

 

 

Suppose you have two labels:
Mum
Dad

And you want Mum and Dad to be sub-labels of Family.

All you have to do is:

  1. Rename your labels
    Dad to Family/Dad
    Mum to Family/Mum
    (use Edit labels and rename).

Example before

Folders4Gmail will now automatically arrange your labels in a folder-like collapsable hierarchy.
Example after
