how do i split my email view (AKA I got a new job)

["Antoine Beaupré" <anarcat@orangeseeds.org>]

Hello!

So I got a new job, and that means I have a new email address that
forwards to my regular mail spool. *Normally*, all that junk should end
up in a separate folder so I am tagging it all as "+work" (there are
quite a few corner cases which I handle individually, but from here on
we can assume there's a single tag to identify all that mail).

How do I stay sane during the weekends? There's a *lot* of junk coming
in that's polluting my "notmuch-hello" view. Here's a "screenshot":

How can I make that "All tags" junk disappear? Or, more specifically,
how do I make it ignore that crowded "work" tag? Bonus points for
flipping back and forth outside of business hours and weekends. :)

I know I can make a billion saved searches to cover for all those
cases. But so far I've used a technique where I tag messages instead of
doing saved searches and it serves me well.

Thanks!
