I have, of course, discovered the best way to do this: multiple e-mail
accounts and mail-sources.  Unfortunately, not everyone can have several
accounts.  I now have my busy mail lists going to one account, while all
other mail goes to another.  If I read from home, I just read the mail from
the second account.  Perfect.
