A simple addition to VM would be to be able automatically, upon startup,
or when getting new mail, to file or discard the stuff you do not 
wish to see. This could also be alist based. 

For example, I'd like some of the mailing list stuff that I get to
be automatically sent to their appropriate files for me to peruse
perhaps weeks later. I'd also want to discard certain department mail
that I know that I never am interested in. 

Later.
