Where an email is from a certain source (e.g. a list) I will first

Lists. As I read these in the Smart Mailbox, I will unflag them, which
will cause them to disappear.
that's about how I menage e-mails to be reviewed. I like a clean inbox,
so all emails older than 15 days go in archive. There are two stages in
between INBOX and Archive: "Waiting diagnosis" and "Diagnosed". Both are
smartboxes; the former shows me all unread, unreplied, unflagged,
not-already-categorised messages older than 4 days. Those whose sender I
have replied to in the past get flagged and elected to the "Diagnosed"
smartbox (which shows me all unread, flagged e-mails). Other mechanisms
are also in place to automatically flag "most likely important e-mails".
Given the nature of my correspondence it's a good system to filter out
low-priority e-mails and keep up with all the important messages I get
within a reasonable time-frame.
I'll let you know if I have any problems.
If I understood your plan correctly, it should work :-)
