I have moved to using IMAP with my gmail account. I created a few
Labels on the advanced IMAP gmail web page. These then get
automatically downloaded and synchronized as folders in either
Thunderbird or Windows Live Mail clients. I then can move messages to
be stored in these folders from any client. It even allows me to move a
message to one of these gmail "Labels" from any of my other accounts,
some of which are POP3 accounts.
This is also a great automatic backup strategy since all of my saved
messages are stored on the gmail server and a text file version is saved
on every Thunderbird client, whether in Vinux or Windows.

substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working
on things that matter.
