Question

Answer 1

A way to get gmail to show this one email at the top of the window is to use multiple inboxes. I am going to assume that the newsletter has the label "thenewsletter"

1. Go to settings/inbox
2. Change inbox type to multiple inboxes
3. Define the search query for section 1 to be "label:thenewsletter"
4. You can specify a small number for Maximim page size
5. Pick "above the inbox" for Multiple inbox position.
6. Don't forget to click save.

Now you will see above the main inbox a section that shows the most recent conversations/messages that meet the specified criteria.
