MsgFiler brings keyboard shortcuts to Mail organization

Organizing emails in Mail.app can be a pain, and sometimes using rules can only go so far. If you need a helping hand to manage all that correspondence, MsgFiler brings some on-the-fly automation to filing messages you've selected. Simply pressing cmd-9 will open a panel that allows you to type the names of folders. Pressing Enter to chose one sends all selected messages to said folder, offering flexibility in your filing habits. A demonstration movie is available at tow.com in case you need to see some examples. MsgFiler typically sells for $12, but is on sale for a limited time for $8.

Now all we need is an equivalent of that Greasemonkey script that also allows for label navigation via the keyboard, and Mail.app just might make it back into my Dock.

I think I will have to write how to sort out mail without using the rules of apple mail.
The proposal here is making the assumption that a mail goes only in one category :)
There is another way.

Because of this software and some comments elsewhere I've started using Mail Act-on

Its free and faster/easier than this (just build some rules and start hitting keyboard combinations).
