HOW TO FILTER OUT SHOTGRID EMAILS:

GOAL: For all SG emails to SKIP the INBOX folder and automatically move them to a specific Shotgrid folder in your email settings.

Caveat: Using Gmail as an example, but other email apps will be similar.

Step 5: Finalize the filter criteria by applying the 3 rules below:

Step 6: Create a NEW LABEL and naming it Shotgrid. This will be the folder.
