Btw, thanks to everyone that chimed in. This will make life much better. It's the last piece of the puzzle for me to move to a more efficient workflow using nmh + MH-E + some homegrown stuff.
Basically, I have a mailfilter front end that calls `inc' and filters mail into different inboxes based on rules. I just finished adding "move conversation" support into this filter, so new messages go to the appropriate inbox (inbox-foo if that's where I moved the conversation). I've also have a hack on top of MH-E so that I can mark messages as "important", by putting them into the `important' sequence, and in Emacs I highlight them in yellow. It's crucial that the important sequence be preserved across refiles, as you can imagine. My main entry point into reading email is no longer my +inbox, but an Emacs buffer that shows something like this: +inbox 1 new 171 old +inbox-gmail 34 unread 35 old +inbox-spam 223 unread 227 old +inbox-junk 144 unread 144 old ; *********** TODO inboxes ******************** +inbox-q 35 old +inbox-fin 41 old +inbox-todo 37 old +inbox-sa 47 old +inbox-pbx 11 old +inbox-adrian 2 old +inbox-someday 77 old +inbox-pend 1 old ; *********** Hobby inboxes******************** +inbox-music 26 old +inbox-photo 26 old +inbox-fun 21 old +inbox-travel 1 old ; *********** Mailing list inboxes ************ +inbox-emacs 292 unread 301 old +inbox-git 176 unread 176 old +inbox-blink 10 unread 10 old +inbox-cygwin 102 unread 129 old +inbox-mh 2 old +inbox-nmh 3 old +inbox-ps 1 unread 1 old When I sat in +inbox all day, I would ignore things I needed to do. Now, I see those things better. Anyway, thanks again.
