What is this monstrosity of a UI?
It would be quicker to do this with a quick-and-dirty PowerShell script, IMO.

If you're not dealing with multi-byte characters, why not try something more usable, like Lupas Rename[^]?

Other than $_, I don't believe underscore has any significance in PERL. Perhaps it's the program itself, not the regex expression.

So, after years of keeping nearly EVERY work email I receive, in my Inbox, I'm trying to now go the route of keeping nothing in my Inbox. All unnecessary mail gets deleted & anything I want to hold onto, gets placed into a folder.
I feel my folder setup is a little messy though, & just looking for suggestions to see if there's a better way I can set them up. There are times I need to go back to an old email & need to shuffle through a few folders to find which folder category I filed the email under.
I basically have a folder for each dept in my company, & then for my IT dept, I have sub folders setup for each application our department works on & maintains. Plus add'l folders for general IT emails & stuff & another separate one for the ticket requests we have come in from around the company.
Anyone have an email folder structure that they like & they're happy with?
Thanks

Inbox.
ProjectX.
ProjectY.
...
Bugs.
Trashcan.
Sent.
I have rules to move emails to the project and bugs folders; everything else that stays in the inbox will be manually filtered.
Most emails end up in the trash .
I'd rather be phishing!

Print the important ones, delete everything else. If you need to respond to a printed one, scan it.

You left out renting storage area for all that paper that accumulated.
And - oh yeah - filing them, too. And looking through those files, which is somehow easier than email based filing?

rent storage space?
shred it, then take it down to the recycling depot.
(Depending where you live may even get a few cent's back for doing it - if nothing else can feel good about saving some trees.)

Lol. No, I don't have over 11 years of emails in my Inbox, if that's what you were referring to. I'm not THAT bad
I used to move my Inbox to an archive roughly every 6 months, labeled by the month & year it was archived, to reduce the inbox size (but I did tend to keep nearly all emails, out of fear of losing an email I may needed to reference later). Plus, these 11 years have spanned over several jobs, so I only had about an average of 3 - 4 years of archived emails at any given time.

I have about 30 email addresses, and get a lot of spam in the important ones. The most successful strategy that I have used for this and general organization is to create a folder for just about every type of message that I might receive, and create filters that send each message to the folder of interest (including spam). What is left in my "In" box is about 10% spam, which is either dispatched, manually filtered, or yet another filter gets created for it. If a message in a folder has not yet been handled properly, I keep it marked as "unread". The folders showing 'unread mail' comprise my "attention still required" list. There is still some manual processing, for example messages from myself, or a co-worker that has a kid on my kid's soccer team, but it works out.
I use this technique for home and work.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

How do you organize your work emails?
Poorly, despite all my best efforts.
I use Outlook. The scheme I've adopted over the last decade was to immediately delete anything that is clearly useless. If I can't make up my mind instantaneously, I keep it. Anything that is at least 6 months old (inbox, sent items) gets moved into a separate PST file named after the previous year (I do this purge twice a year, end of June and end of December). The older PST files aren't loaded, so Outlook still starts pretty fast.
On the few occasions where I need to search for something older than 6 months, I mount the file(s) for which I think the date range makes sense and search from there...then unmounts everything when I'm done. It's far from ideal, but it's an ok compromise between only keeping around recent/relevant things, and still having a full archive if I do need it.

I use Outlook. Separate folders for each product line. A folder each for internal and personal stuff, plus one for my new boss. I manually sort things into the folders after they've been dealt with.

Hey, if you can't create a logical directory structure, don't come to me asking to manage any projects.

I haven't bothered with anything at my new job, but the most thought I put into when doing it at my old job was to figure out what to name the folder that announcements from the C*O's went into: At the time it was Pravda; in retrospect Isvestia Nyet Pravda would've been a more appropriate fit; which is why that place is my old job...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I wanted to reach some understanding about a few lines of code, and the one who wrote it is out of reach for now... So I wanted to see the date it was added/modified, to check in our bug tracking system if there is something related...
So I asked VS to annotate it...
Exactly before the block I interested in there are two lines I just added (10 minutes before), but VS annotated it to 06/03/2011...
How wonderful, now I can trust every date it shows...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

I'm immune. I drink coffee only if I must and then it usually is 95% milk.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
