Seriosity ... Serious problem .... Email Overload

Talking of coming back to work from a long leave ... It has mixed feelings both good and bad ... good ?? i must be joking ... but no ... thats the best thing .. enjoying ones work ...
bad .... i bet you have experienced that

• Vacations over :(
  
• PENDING emails .... phew !!
  

at least now there is a solution to the second problem .... seriosity
well its a good solution to the problem of overly crowded emails ....

forget about vacations on daily basis we all receive so many un-wanted mails .. what was the last time when you missed out an important email .... coz it was hidden in a big pile of mails .. not spam exactly ?? i guess not too long ...

but now we have a solution.... read what cnet has to say about it ...

just a thought ... cant we include the solution to such problem in at protocol level itself... ??
instead of letting proprietary technology step in ... ??
