I imagine it might if I didn't have so many hundreds or thousands of
messages that I never get around to reading because the subject line
looks too irrelevant.

But I'll see if I can adjust my work habits to use next unread.

(I've been using a cron job that gets rid of anything over 3 months old
if it hasn't been refiled somewhere.  Believe it or not, it seems to be
faster than deleting uninteresting stuff for some reason)

Thanks.
