If it's login information, etc, I just do a right click > Move to Important. That's enough for me, and search is responsive enough to poll the 50,000+ emails I have in my Inbox.
This is the point I keep making to the people I work with, who can never get their head round the fact that I can pull messages out of one big folder faster than they can carefully track it down in their huge array of folders (my line manager has ~200 folders, some containing only single figures of items).
