You mean, Gnus can know when you have no more use of some email
message and it can be discarded? How does it do that?

When you have no good idea what to search for, having related email
messages together in the same folder will help finding what you are
looking for faster. So I find that some classification is still
useful, although I have search capabilities set up that can find any
email in split-seconds.

I'm not pushing Rmail, either. But there's no need to denigrate a
solution if you find another solution better suited to your needs.
