Email Folder Structure / Organization Method

What have you found is the best way to organize your inbox? Do you have a folder for each deal? Do you have sub folders within those folders? How do you deal with emails related to ad-hoc tasks or business development efforts? Do you get to inbox zero each day? How do you deal with to-do items - do you leave them in your inbox, or you flag them and file them away? How do you balance the time it takes to sort emails with the disorganization that comes with unsorted emails?

I would greatly appreciate hearing any best practices you all have.
