Very cool experiment. How do you deal with less technical people in the team who don't find it fun to tweak email filters all day long? Is your tooling to the point of polish where that's no longer an issue? Or are you simply at a stage where you don't (yet) need to hire non technical people? We've found this to be the main obstacle in getting full adoption for things like this.

Andreas on our team built a filter manager, which makes it much easier: https://github.com/antifuchs/gmail-britta https://github.com/antifuchs/gmail-britta I was all set up with filters on my first day and then made tweaks over my first couple of weeks to improve efficiency.
- toomuchtodo 14y agoDo you create filter "roles", so certain roles have default filter sets upon creation?
- gdb 14y agoWe don't. People end up choosing the various lists they want to be on, so it wouldn't make much sense to do so.
