Nested Labels
Ahem... GMail-like - but nested labels would be a real plus!

Yes please! I've been a paid user for years, and I just migrated everything from Gmail because my info was exposed in a recent data breach. Not having nested labels is a huge letdown.

this idea was provided in 2015... 9 years ago... how has this not been added when it is a basic feature for any gmail user? in my opinion protonmail should cover basic gmail habits to make transitioning easier

I was about to upgrade before I found out labels are so extremely limited in functionality, including this.

This is top-priority! I need to auto-organize my emails with filters, hierarchical and without removing them from the inbox. You can't do that with folders!

Will be good addition

I'm still hung up on the inability to search/sort/filter on multiple labels.

Yes! Hierarchical display & management of labels, being able to expand & collapse them the same way as Proton does with folders.

Come on, please offer this feature. Or at the very least, please be transparent and explain why you're not implementing this very widely requested feature. You already know that many people, who really want to switch to ProtonMail from Google, are still sticking with Gmail because Proton still, after all these years, does not offer nested labels. You guys pride yourself on transparency, right? Well, here's your chance to prove that — why is this feature not yet implemented? Does it have to do with technical limitations? Is it not a priority despite how widely requested this feature is? What is it?? Please, just address this issue!

Since apparently folders and labels share a namespace, it would be useful to be able to put labels into folders. I've just imported *two* Google accounts, each of which is over a decade old, and a single unsortable list is not helpful.

This doesn't make sense to me. We have nested folders now and I'm not sure how or why you'd nest a label as a label is not a location so there's nothing to nest into.

Nested labels are essential for me. It's the one missing feature preventing me from switching to protonmail completely.

Allow folders and their respective sub-folders to be collapsed. Would allow for a cleaner side tab when the user has many folders with subfolders. Similiar to what gmail offers. Apply this to labels as well.

My Gmail migration just crashed because your system didn't understand my nested labeling :(

Allow creation of sub-labels and parent labels just as is available for folders

Please implement nested labels. I want to ditch gmail but I can't without this. I don't want a list of a zillion different labels. I have major labels like work, kids, travel, and under them I have sub-labels for many different things.
I tried folders, but folders don't solve the problem of this huge long list of labels, where in gmail I have just a short list of main labels that I can expand to see all the sub-labels.
This is what will keep me from using protonmail as my main email and I will search for another non-google solution. Perhaps the rumored X-mail if it's any good.

there's not even a need to implement 'nested' labels specifically, IMO the idea of nesting labels is an implementation choice by Google that didn't fully get or maximize the power of labels.
Simply allow searching by more than one label, which achieves the same result more elegantly. There's no need for nested `reservations/air` label when we can just apply `reservations` and `air` and search for BOTH of them together.

Please implement nested labels, it's one of the main things preventing me from finishing migrating fully from Gmail.

Sorry if duplicated...I've not used labels yet, but if you have assigned labels then one thing is necessary; the ability to reassign existing labels for all email messages to another label. Especially if nested labels are implemented.
