For a start? I don't look forward to coming back to your computer after
less than 24 hours away and finding about 100 messages (nearly 200
yesterday), repeat daily. There is threading in my email client, but
it's for all or nothing, and I don't want threading in the other email
folders I have. And because people reply to digest, change subject etc.,
even threading doesn't do much good. So the only option I'm left with is
keep sorting by new messages / date / subject back and forth to skip to
topic I might be interested in.
