Hide the Gmail Spam Counter

Feature added: April 19, 2006

Everytime you get spam from someone your spam folder in Gmail increments and gets a bold typeface.

Visible spam counter

Since most people are not interested in spam, this notification doesn't help you at all. It's only annoying, especially if you get a lot of spam.

CustomizeGoogle now has the option to hide the spam counter and change the font from bold to regular. This helps you focus on other, more important tasks.

To use this feature you need to check the appropriate CustomizeGoogle option. This feature is disabled by default.
