Personally, I do not like filtering my mail into
separate spools as it comes in, because, since I'm a
busy person, I will never go and dig through them.
That's the reason why I have 18,131 unread messages in my classiccmp folder* :-)
* what did we call things before they were folders? I always think of it as a [MS]
Windows term, but I can't think what the convention for "a group of related
stuff" was (aside from directories for files on disk, of course)
