I used to set a limit on the inbox for my email at 3000. At that point, I would make myself clean it out, get it down under a hundred, and start over. Here is what I have as of right now:

I’m at a point where I will probably never answer about 15% of the emails I get a day, because there’s no time and I’m getting way too many. The upside though, is that our work changes so much every day that anything more than two months old can pretty safely be deleted and I think that’s where I might go with this round of cleanout. Speaking of email, I got another new Blackberry today, my third to have in the last few months. I used to think it was the greatest electronic device because I would drop mine on pavement 2 or 3 times a day and go unscathed. There’s nothing lamer than wearing a pda on your belt, but it’s pretty much necessary carrying one of these and it’s inevitable it’s going to launch out of the clip, all the time. Instead of showing signs that they’re getting beaten down, they just decide to stop working one day, which is what all my other ones did. I got my new one at noon, and when I got home from work it took its first fall on my garage floor…
