No, but I might if several new files that I wanted to see showed up
every minute.

No you don't. On the rare occasion that I only want to see one list at
at time, my mail clients can filter the subject lines of at least the
ones that politely identify themselves more or less instantly. Normally
what I want to see are the most recent unread messages though, and I
don't want to hop around in different folders to find them.

It's not that I couldn't isolate things where I can't easily see them,
it is that I prefer not to.
