So what you're suggesting is to more to keep more messages in the in box,
instead of sorting to the concrete folders with filters and instead use
more smart folders, i e virtual folders. While I wouldn't call the Recent
Messages Window a 'smart' folder, it is indeed a 'virtual' in the sense
that it's not a concrete place where the contents are permanently stored.
The reasons behind this being that you feel it would give less filters to
handle?

One blatant error in your suggestion is that it requires that the 'smart'
in your smart folders is more or less perfect. Are you sure you would
like to rely on the current search technology with its limitations for
organizing your messages? You know of the limitations, right?
