Here are three examples: TB! users have access to several groups: Users, Tech, Off Topic. I, for one, filter all TB! msgs to one folder while others may filter each group to their own folder. I could use color filters to identify which group the msg was from by color assignment for fast visual identification. Example2: I filter both msgs from a group & my responses to the group to one folder. However, when my msgs come back to me, they are filtered & marked by a special color so I just ignore them automatically. Just for kicks I also decided to color my spam to see what kind of spam I was getting -- financial [green] or sex [red]. I'm sure others have more sophisticated & useful ideas for color filters.
