- This is generally a great deal faster than a shell-scripted approach.
- This approach introduces a workflow built around a "watch" tag. Here, the user
- is only presented with threads as they are started. At this point the user can
- choose to watch the thread, in which case future messages will be tagged with
- "inbox", or ignore it. This provides an excellent means for dealing with a
- large flux of messages with a low signal-to-noise. It is email
