Group mail in inbox view by label
I would love to have an option to group mail by label on my inbox dashboard. A bullet pointed list of the feature I have in mind:
- The feature does not have to be available on mobile and could be a web exclusive (as is the case with Google Mail)
- The feature can be toggled on/off on the settings tab, next to density and layout
- Each label would be turned into a separate list of mail items
- If an email has multiple labels, the email would appear in both label's list
- All unlabeled items would be displayed at the top, in a list named "Inbox" for example
- If an item from the "Inbox" general list receives a label, it will be teleported to the corresponding label list
- Lists can be collapsible (ie accordion), allowing the user to hide currently irrelevant emails by label
The motivation behind this feature:
Allows people to organize their emails in a folder-like way, but also have a quick overview of everything that's going on without clicking through multiple views.

Yes please!!! Proton seriously needs better organization! I would love to have my mail grouped by label! It needs more viewing options altogether with the ability to sort and group by date, label, sender, etc. That would make it much easier to find the emails I need and delete the ones I don't!
