And what’s an “important” message? Mail considers factors like what’s in

the message, who sent it to you, and how often you correspond with that
person. In general, actual personal email lands in the Focused list, and junk
mail, newsletters, special offers, and that kind of thing wind up in Other.

Of course, you can train Mail to do a better job. Right-click a message in
the Focused list that you feel has been incorrectly filed; from the shortcut
menu, choose either “Move to Other” (just this message) or “Always move

to Other” (all future messages from this person). You can also perform this
operation in the Other list, choosing “Move to Focused” or “Always move
to Focused.”
