Design a minimal folder or label spine that separates action, waiting, reference, and later-review email.
Folders work when they answer: what will I do with this later? Action support Use this only for emails tied to tasks already captured elsewhere. The folder stores context; the task list stores commitment. Waiting For Put emails here when someone else owns the next move. Add a follow-up reminder or review this folder daily so delegation does not disappear. Reference and Later Reference is information you may need. Later or Read Later is material you have chosen to batch. Mixing them creates a swamp because facts and intentions require different reviews.
