Dave -

I get 200 - 300 emails a day.  Business, financial, ham radio, personal, etc.

I have never used Thunderbird, but it sounds like what I am doing with Outlook.  I have it set up with Folders and in some cases, Sub-folders, where everything goes as per established sort rules.

In addition, because I have so many folders, I have a "Favorites" section of the display where I can see certain folders in addition to in their proper location in the main list.

Does Thunderbird do something special? I could use some email magic.

I too use Thunderbird, and it is wonderful.  I look at 40 or so lists, 
each has a folder, and Thunderbird has filters, so they all go directly 
into their respective folders.

Free, and far better than anything out there...
