I like this!
- I have all emails in one folder, with tags (Simplytag).
- And I use search when I need to find something, often in combination with tag.
- But this approach - the way you describe it @Alex - would give me a leg up in terms of spending less time tagging, and more time getting things out of the way. I might try it this.
- The only “downside” is - that with tags, I can pull out complete history of something related to an case/issue or a product. (Sometimes I need to export / take out the history of an issue). But that requires that I’m up to speed with tagging (which is not always the case). And it’s maybe 1 out of 100. So I might just invest a little more time tracking down relevant emails from that issue, and I’ll still be ahead.
