I have a few broad search filters (example, at work: internal email vs outside email.) I star or bookmark things I need to come back to (and then un-star them afterwards.) I use text search to find everything else.
I treat it like a giant single chat history.
I have never not been able to find an email when I need to, and I never miss a message.
Life is too short to waste time trying to maintain "inbox zero."
