Being a social media maven can create a major problem for your inbox, where every tag and notification seems to be shouting for your attention. Your Klout score may be in the thousands, but let’s keep your inbox to just the important few. With Hotmail’s new graymail features, you can keep only the latest notification, or even categorize them to a separate folder. Worry about your groups, followers, pins, and tags, without the cluttered noise they can create.
