This is not even that hard to do and it's such a helpful feature. I wish I understood more about how ProtonMail prioritized features.

Surprised this is missing from protonmail!! It's been 9 years since this request first posted, so not much hope that this is seen by anyone who can affect change.

This would be a massive help. It's the only thing I miss.

Having important emails show up at the top of my screen would be extremely helpful to my ability to organize and make sure I get to the important ones. I've used this feature extensively with MS Outlook and it has been a lifesaver!

This would be a great addition. In terms of design, different layout that ordinary email. For example, in the same panel as other emails, but two columns view. Just like how we pin tabs in browsers, it gets pinned and width of tab is very small. Something like that. hey.com has some great UX ideas in their email client.

Looking forward to seeing this feature!

It would be great to be able to pin highlighted or important emails to the top of the inbox as you can do in Outlook and Gmail.

Ability to pin emails to the top of the inbox / folders!!! How is this not available??

A pin to the top option would be incredibly useful!

Both Outlook (through its pining feature) and GMail (with its priority inbox) allow users to have important messages "pinned" on top of the inbox.
This is a very useful feature to mark emails that need attention through a first quick pass before addressing them one by one without missing anything.

In ProtonMail, what I would like to see is an aggregation of starred messages at the top of the Inbox, i.e., as soon as I mark a message as "starred", it should be listed at the top along with other (non-archived) starred messages before regular messages. Once a starred message is archived, it should not be listed in the inbox anymore.

Even better, having that same feature (possibly as a feature that can be enabled/disabled) apply to other folders (archive, sent messages) would be awesome.

Arguably, starred conversations are the most important ones in our mailboxes, and having a way to quickly and conveniently access them is key to improve usability. Having this feature consistently implemented across all folders in ProtonMail would make it stand out from the competition in that regard.

This feature would be incredibly useful!

Please implement this!

I'm still waiting. I need this feature.

Pls, we need this feature to Pin Emails to the top. Idealy when hovering over an Email on the right side would be a pin option

We need this function.

Please offer a subtle option in the interface to pin an email to the top of the inbox or respective folder. I find this is very useful in the desktop version of Outlook and really helps my workflow when distinguishing between subjects of a permanent topic versus transitory/one off conversations.

Would also like this feature please

optioin to make a message stick to the top

It would be nice to be able to pin and flag important messages to the top of the inbox rather than putting them in a separate folder (out of sight, out of mind, ya know). Sort of like how Hotmail/Outlook does it.

I literally wrote a blog post about how this feature is the basis of my task management system. https://deanebarker.net/tech/blog/managing-your-tasks-in-gmail/

Agreed! I would like to be able to pin any email so that it stays at the top. Thanks!
