At GMX, you can change the view with just a few simple steps. If, after logging in, your emails are displayed in a small column, you can easily undo this.
GMX: Changing the view explained step by step
To change the view at GMX, please follow these steps:
- Open your inbox: Make sure you are in the mail menu, i.e. that you have opened your inbox.
- Change view: Click on the “Date” button in the top right corner.
- A drop-down menu labeled “Sorting” opens, where you can select different views, such as “List view”, “Preview below” or “Preview on the right”. Select the desired view to activate it immediately.
- Further customization options: If you have problems with readability, you can also adjust the font size or the web page view by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + + or Ctrl + -. Alternatively, you can switch the email view to “Full view” to use the entire width of the window.
Set GMX differently for different email categories
You can customize the view for different email categories at GMX. This is possible thanks to the “Intelligent Mailbox” function and the view sorted by category. These features allow you to flexibly design your GMX mailbox and customize the view for different email categories.
- Intelligent mailbox: This feature automatically sorts your emails into different categories such as “Newsletters”, “Orders”, “Social media” and “Contracts and subscriptions”. You can use this view without having to create folders yourself.
- View by category: Open your inbox in the GMX Mail app. Activate the “Sort by category” option by moving the slider to the right. This view combines the categories of the Intelligent Mailbox with the classic view of the inbox.
- Customization options: You can hide the categories of the Smart Mailbox by tapping the arrow symbol in the top right. Then only emails from the “General” category will be displayed. For a more personalized sorting, you can also create and delete your own email folders, e.g. “Personal”, “Invoices” or “Association”.
- View options: You can also customize the general view of your mailbox by choosing between “List view”, “Preview at bottom” or “Preview at right”.
