I've got a slightly different problem. I never use the INBOX. Instead,
I filter *all* of my mail into pseudo-newsgroups. (I read a bajillion
mailing lists and find it easier to read my personal mail the same way I
do all my other mail. Plus I have a few mailing lists that are a
"group" and get put together in the same area.)

What I'd like to see is a way to block followups to certain groups in
the database. It's annoying to accidentally follow-up to a mail message
and have uqwk try to post it to mail.carl. But I'm probably a little
unusual.
