Gmail lets you customize your inbox's layout: There's the default layout (tabbed inboxes), three layouts that put different types of messages first ("important," "unread," and "starred"), and a priority inbox layout that sorts mail based on importance.
If you want to wrestle your email into submission, the default and priority inbox layouts are the most useful -- one categorizes, the other prioritizes. You should play around with layouts until you find the one that best suits your needs -- I like the default layout, because it lets me shunt possibly-important-sales promotional emails to one tab, without getting rid of them altogether.
Click the cog button, open the Settings menu, and click the Inbox s tab. Under 'Inbox tab", use the pulldown menu to select the type of inbox you want.
Put the internet to work for you.
