You have taken the folder approach, and that is a bit less complicated to set up than sup+offlineimap, but still does require that you know how to filter by tag. It also means that you are experiencing one of the problems with cross posting whenever anybody adds a tag, as in that setup each message is duplicated into each folder, or you have a 'first match' sieve and then tag order becomes significant. Either way, you have to flip back and forth to read a thread. Or maybe somebody has an answer? Nobody in the room at the SWG session had one.
I don't have the problem you're describing here. I've got a gmail account but I use Thunderbird for my mail client since filtering and foldering the dev ML in gmail is a nightmare, at least since I was already used to Thunderbird for another IMAP account already.
So yeah I've got lots of folders, and filters, but have sorted my filters such that the projects I care about the most get priority. So if there is a thread with several project tags on it, like the one you did for the nova-compute API session at the PTG, that still all just goes into my nova folder since that's priority #1 in my sort list in Thunderbird.
Over the years I tried to keep up with new folders for new tags/projects, but with the big tent that got impossible, so now I basically filter into folders the projects I really care about being on top of, and then the rest just goes into my default "openstack-dev" folder. If I find that I'm constantly missing something with a given tag, then I start filtering that into a new folder that's prioritized higher.
