I've been on a recent email organization kick. I spent last week setting up aliases and filters to keep junk out of my inbox.
Basically I set up an alias for each newsletter I subscribe to then went and either change my email for those accounts or unsubscribed then resubscribed with the new alias.
Then I created a label for each newsletter/whatever I was expecting and set it to "Show if unread". Next I created the filter, I put in the "to" email address of the alias, then set the filter to auto archive and apply the label for that newsletter.
That way it doesn't pop up in my inbox but if there's an unread message it does appear in my left hand label list.
Then I can get to it when I want and process it at that time. That helps keeps important items in my inbox that I can process more quickly.
