I have tried (and failed) to follow the empty inbox system of email. The
idea is to file something from your inbox as soon as you have dealt with
it. In theory, the few items that remain in your inbox are the ones that
still need your attention. Judging by the 204 items currently in my
inbox, I have mostly (but not completely) failed at this. However, my
system does solve your problem. The things that I do file, I file to
local folders. Many people think that, with search, you don't really
need multiple folders (and I am leaning toward agreeing with them) so
this could be a simple system of just moving the things you are finished
with from your Exchange Inbox to your local Inbox. This is one of the
things that has been quite successful about my failed system. Even
though my inbox is still very crowded, 204 messages does not approach my
limit.
Oh, one more thing, I wrote a rule to automatically move any items from
Exchange Sent items folder to my local Sent items folder as soon as I
send a message.
All this together leaves my footprint on the Exchange server very small
even as I store gigabytes worth of email.

Multiple folders are valuable if you use IMAP and access your e-mail
via the web. As an example, since I use Google IMAP I like certain
mail filed say under the Folder receipts. So now if I access Google
mail via the web i can search under just receipts which makes it
easier.
