Hi, I receive a lot of junk mails in my mailbox. 1% of what I get is really important and this 1% is often replies to e-mails I sent before. How to tag replies to my messages or filter them to drive them into a "replies only" folder ? Because creating a new filter rule each time I send a mail to a different e-mail adress takes time...

Thank you.

You could create a filter with 2 criteria (Match all of the following): Subject + contains + re: and From + is in my address book + (your trusted senders address book); action: tag or move to a folder. It's easier to have a trusted senders book rather than create a filter for each sender.
