I disagree, the Inbox is not ticklers. The inbox is inbox-zero: stuff that goes there should be cleaned out on a daily basis. In the traditional 43 folders, the day (or months) tickler file was dumped into the inbox for processing, but it isn't part of the inbox. I agree with Ken. In OF, Context mode is the place to view Tickler items.
I have a Ticklers perspective with these settings:
Remaining Contexts, Grouped by Start, Sorted by Due, Show Actions with status Remaining, Any Duration, Any Flag Status.
I have the groups collapsed for everything but Started yesterday, Start today, and Start tomorrow. If I want to "tickle myself", I add an action to OF with a start date corresponding to the tickle date. In my daily review I just check my Ticklers perspective instead of checking a paper file.
