I practice "unread zero". I leave emails in my inbox in case I need them later. The search function works well. If they are not marked "unread", I don't pay attention to them thus my brain does not see it as clutter.
- arethuza 16y agoThat's pretty much what I do - I read emails I get fairly quickly, I get very little spam and I can find things through search far more easily than people I know who obsessively file and/or categorize things. NB My Inbox has 16010 items in it ;-)
- tricky 16y agoi have 19,452 messages in my inbox right now. I'm mildly OCD but my brain doesn't register this as clutter, either. I think it's because of search. I know I can find something when I need it because everything is in one place, on one server, regularly backed up to 3 different locations.
