When I gave up on Emacs, and moved to GUI clients, Kmail, Evolution and now Thunderbird, I stayed nostalgic about this, and often got frustrated about the time it takes to drag emails to their folders. Recently, I discovered the Thunderbird extension Nostalgy, which allows to define rules for moving emails with one simple key stroke
