Excellent response cebailey. I do much of the same things you do with the exception of not being as disciplined with the project name. This can bite me when I have a different project name in the mail project folder than I do in OF.

I haven't used notes in OF to create links or even to document a project. And I haven't created project names in Evernote. I'll usually create some kind of note title in Evernote and then a few tags like work or home and any specific tags, like a vendor.

One trick I do with projects in Mail and on my hard drive is to place a bullet in front of them. • (option + 8) Shorthand for 'stake in the ground'. This will sometimes force a name to the top of a list if sorted alphabetically.

Thanks for the detailed look into your workflow.
