Seriously.
How often do you need to find mail that you have filed? Once a month or so?
How often do you need to file mail? Much more often.
Optimize for many writes and few reads. Just throw everything in a box in chronological order. Everything will be easy enough to find and VERY easy to file. The most you should do is have a couple of boxes for broad categories of stuff to file.
