I also employ a tickler system in sup, one that relies exclusively on labels.
To mark a thread for review on day DD of the month, label it with #DD.
Obviously this extends forward only one month. I have not found that
problematic. I also use #E to indicate the need to reply, #W as waiting for
something, #A for action required, etc.
The choice of # came from two considerations. First, it sorts before letters.
Second, it does not require quoting in searches. The date labels could do
without the prefix, but I began with the #<letter> labels, and like the way
that the common prefix sets these elements apart in label-list-mode.
Cheers, W.
