I'm a big fan of the one-touch inbox zero flow, although the way I do it is slightly different.
I have four folders that I organize all incoming email into:
1. Requires Reply
2. Requires Action
3. Keep Eyes On
Anything that doesn't immediately fall into one of these categories gets archived. Any email newsletters are immediately unsubscribed from (with the exception of Ruby Weekly and Python Weekly).
I also use a lot of automated filters/rules for applying organizational labels to different emails.
I use @Action, @Bills, and @Waiting. It if takes less than 2 minutes, I do it immediately upon receipt. Otherwise it goes into the Action folder. I use @ in front of the folder name so it's at the top of my subfolder list.
