If an email conversation has gone off on a tangent that no longer interests you or is useful to you, muting (as I described in the previous section) is the right strategy for keeping that conversation from clogging your inbox. However, sometimes you might want to remove a conversation from your inbox only temporarily. For example, if you're busy, you might not want a conversation's frequent notifications interrupting your train of thought.

You can remove a conversation temporarily from your inbox by using Gmail's handy Snooze feature, which sends the conversation to bed until a date and time you specify. The conversation is still available in the Snoozed label, should you need to check in.

To snooze a conversation, follow these steps:

1 Select the conversation's check box.

2 Click Snooze.Gmail displays the Snooze Until dialog box, which looks an awful lot like the one shown in Figure 2-20.FIGURE 2-20: Use the Snooze Until options to set an end time for the conversation's nap.

3 If you see a date and time that works for you, click it and skip the rest of this procedure.

4 Click Select Date and Time.Gmail opens the Select Date and Time dialog box, which offers a calendar and a time text box.

5 Use the calendar to select the date on which you want the snooze period to end.

6 Use the text box to enter the time you want the snooze to end.

7 Click Save.Gmail makes a note to restore your conversation on the date and time you specified.

To wake up a snoozed conversation, open the Snoozed label, select the snoozed conversation, click Snooze, and then click Unsnooze.
