Archiving

How do I use this feature to file my emails and photos?  Where do they go and how do I retrieve?

Here are the steps for archiving your mail.  The emails are stored in a folder titled All Mail. Here is a link to this info http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=6576.  Hope this helps!

Archiving moves messages out of your inbox and into All Mail, letting you tidy up your inbox without deleting anything. Any message you've archived can be found in All Mail, in any labels you've applied to it, and in Gmail search results. When someone responds to a message you've archived, the conversation containing that message will reappear in your inbox.

To archive messages:

1. Select a message by checking the box next to the sender's name.
2. Click Archive.

If you have a conversation open, you can archive it by clicking Archive at the top of the page.

To move an archived message back to your inbox, follow these steps:

1. Click All Mail. (If you don't see All Mail along the left side of your Gmail page, click more above Contacts on the left side of the page.)
2. Check the box next to the sender's name.
3. Click Move to Inbox.

I am totally lost with this explanation.  I know it must make sense to those that understand it but I do not.

For example:

     "1. Select a message by checking the box next to the sender's name."

     "2. Click Archive."

Please tell me what device or application you are viewing to execute this.  I do not see this on my Droid X.

Your help is appreciated.  Thanks!

EDIT:

*** I got it now!  I find that these actions are performed on the Google Gmail Account; not on the Droid X.  Yes, the actions work well.  Thanks! ***
