On the contrary, it seems quite far away in fact. It is certainly intended 
to free the main mailbox but also not to stack emails in a complicated 
hierarchy of (sub)folders.

It defeats the purpose IMO. Especially since you have to compete in 
ingenuity (colors, complicated settings, etc.) to navigate your emails.

Wow !

Thanks for sharing your approcha Lucio but I really think it wouldn't 
suit me since it demands too much effort and discipline to kepe/to 
maintain the system
