A little bit of everything...
If it's something I want to think about and return to soon, I do as
Benjamin does and just mark it "new". I'll forget that I've read it,
and read again.
If it's something that needs to wait a while, I flag them and label them
(a comment in the X-Label: field), indicating why they're important.
Sometimes I'll also put a draft into the postponed folder, depending on
whether I have any ideas that need to be written down now.
Every month or two I go through my inbox (limit ~F) and unflag messages
that are no longer important, so I can delete them. :)
