[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just dont delete anything

I have maybe five folders for some things like travel, medical, passwords, etc.

But mostly I just leave everything in my inbox and use the search feature.

I dont really get why some people are so obsessed with having a perfect email inbox. It's not necessary[/quote]

+1, I use some folders and tags (in gmail), but mostly stuff just lives in my inbox and I'm good at searching for what I need.  If I run into space issues, I typically do some searching based on size and other keywords to delete stuff that's not important. [/quote]

I had to come to terms with my "infinity inbox" a few years ago. I do use folders (by year, and then by type, and then by sub-type) but I don't try for putting everything in a folder. I just search on the topic when it is something I am working on and then folder things at that time. Even with this, my work inbox (which includes some forwarded personal stuff) currently has 15,849 emails, and my 2024 folder already has about 200 subfolders. I wish it didn't bother me![/quote]
