That's what email filters/rules are for! They just have to tell stu-
dents to include a certain thing in the subject for completed assign-
ments, set up a filter/rule for it, and then all emails containing that 
thing will go to it's own folder

And this brings up an additional argument against Teams (and similar): 
kids today (and even so-called "PROFESSORS"!) apparently don't know how 
email works (;´Д`)

It's contributing to this shitty world where open internet standards 
liek email are getting replaced with proprietary corpo crap (;´Д`)
