And, of course, that's not to say that I don't support changing Bugzilla to give some actual useful information in that area, because I definitely do.

And since Gmail doesn't filter on custom headers, I filed an issue with them. Nothing to my knowledge ever came of it. Please spam them with more bugs until they fix it. :-) When I attempted to use gmail as a view into my bugmail (leaving Thunderbird 2.x behind) the first thing I did was try to replicate my intricate filter system that is based on the custom headers in bugzilla.

It seems like an extra step though. Yeah, I’ve got a rule set up to add tags to the email based on who sent it. It seems like an extra step though.

Cannot you filter the email sender and redirect emails into their appropriate folder? Thunderbird can do that. This way, you have one folder per installation, and you aren't confused anymore.
