Here is a Simple trick to see Unread mails in Gmail
In yahoo mail, there is an easy way to list all unread mails with one click. In Gmail, its a little bit tricky. Here are two small tricks to list unread mails:
1. In mail search box, type label:unread. It will show all Unread mails.
2. Another method
a. If you feel the first method a little boring, then follow this method. Create a label with whatever
name your like except system specific names like unread, read, inbox, etc.
b. Now, Mark all Unread mails by clicking Unread
c. Click ‘More actions’ and apply the label you just created.
Note: if you have unread mails in the next pages too, you need to do the same procedure for all the pages. Hint: Keep number of mails per page to 100 to make things easier.
thanks… what a simple solution!
why didn’t I ever think of it!
Thanks… it really helped me!!!

There is another way, which is create a filter that has as keyword “label:unread” (as you say in you option 1), and assign it to a label (as in option 2). This way the label will always be updated and have the unreal only mails.
