The only thing I use email tags/folders for is to tag recruiters. Last time I looked for a job (in September), I just ranked the companies in order of my interest, and went down the list. 80% of the recruiters were happy to hear from me (even those who I had ignored)

Would you still like to talk?" is sufficient. Alternatively compose a "Thanks, not now" template that you send to all recruiters when they email. Then later on hit them with a "How about now?"
