"Paul likes things to be filed," Purcell said. "He found himself trying to move massive amounts of e-mail into meaningfully named folders."

I thought that was what Rules were for. To automatically put new mail into folders depending on who it was from , etc. This new software of Paul Allen's may not have a wide audience.

Not to dog on P Allen much... but could this be a case of Grandpa still wanting to continue doing _____ cause this new fangled thing is too complicated. Already happening with my Dad already lol.

This bro just has the $$$$ to just write his own addin :D
