I have all these labels that showed up under each email account. I just want to see my 3 email accounts. I do not want to have “drafts “, “sent”, “sent mail”, “spam”, “trash”, “all mail”, “important “, and “starred “ showing up under each email account. How do I make these labels go away and get back to the simple 3 account view that I used to have for so many years (since Eudora)?

Is there a way to go back to the previous simplified version?

Thanks

I understand - I've gotten very accustomed to the old way myself. However, arguably, these should have behaved like other account types from the start and not been hidden. They are now "flattened" like all other accounts. There is no going back.

But you can unsubscribe from All Mail for example. In the google settings you might be able to hide some.

The issue is not wanting to get rid of any of these folders, but to be able to 'fold' them under a single entry like 'gmail' as it was previously. Previously, I would periodically check my spam folder and drafts folder and occasionally use 'sent' or 'all mail' to search for an email. This issue is that I do not want to lose the space for each account. It should be noted that I track 4 gmail accounts and having 5 instead of a single entry for each one takes up too much vertical space unnecessarily. Please provide an option to condense these to a single line as in previous versions.
