I use GMail's filters a lot, and in particular have a "Newsletters" label that keeps "bacn" from getting into my Inbox (and instead just lights up my ambient email notifier green.)
I've added a "to be filtered" label that I can apply to anything that slips into the Inbox and then later on, when I have time, I can look at all these messages, select them in groups and use the "Filter messages like these" command to make sure they don't bother me again.
This solves two problems: being taken out of the "flow" to create a filter, and perpetually handling the items manually and never getting around to creating a filter.
