- Matt Gillooly said: This is hella tight. I've taken to using only Inbox, Archive, Hold, and Followup as my mail bins (i.e. using labels for message processing state, and using only search to find specific messages later). So nice to be able to hide the labels I'm not currently using in Mail.app without deleting the old labels entirely, and burning my bridges in case I decide to switch back.
