Personally, I have some cute procmail rules based on 
http://john.fremlin.org/linux/howto/procmail.html that neatly sort my 
mailbox before my mail client ever sees it. When you add up mail lists, 
admin alerts, quota notices and all the rest of the regular mail that I 
get, I needed something - and that framework makes it easy to manage.

If a mail list gets a bit hetcic, its easy to do a "mark all read" in a 
single mail-list folder for a mail list until it settles down again.
