No worries about Mail.app-relatedness. The blog would have ground to a halt months ago if that was all that got posted here! Thanks for the links too. Thanks, Ted.

You may also want to see a version of “d cubed” that looks more like the original GTDTW.

There are descriptions of these things at (among other places) the 43folders Wiki:
