I was about to give up on the email part of Google Deskbar, it was recording all the email I got – even the vast majority that ended up in my Spam folder.

Had a poke around a few days ago and found the filter feature and added a simple single filter, the email domain.

As most people at work have a standard signature, it acts as a selector for work mail. Now I have the Google Desktop on my second monitor and at a glance I can see a summary of the latest work related emails!

joy!
