There are a few options for contacts in org-mode that I have tried. I agree for a lot of contacts (probably more than a hundred or so), then native org-contacts might be too slow. In scimax I have tried a few different approaches to deal with this. The first is all org/elisp that uses a cache to

Maybe, but those are unusually high maildir numbers IMO. I have approx 8Gb of email messages, but only have a handful of maildirs - this is primarily why I prefer mu4e and org as a powerful mail workflow. I use to use the old model of sorting email into many different folders, but it was just

Could you just use a tag for this? My shallow thought is that if you tagged headlines, over time you could use different tags for different content type whereas if you use a new custom type, you would need to repeat the definition process (whatever that might be) every time you discovered a new
