[or-roots] Re: Over-Abundance Of Email

[Connie Guardino]

Too much email rapidly becomes unmanageable. When I first download my email in the morning,
I immediately delete all the viagra and diet ads. That gets rid of one third to one half of
it.As I read each post, I either save it in a folder or delete it. Sometimes I start
"cleaning house" without mercy and delete messages I previously thought were "sacred cow."
But, after two or three years, if that message hasn't been put in my diary, it really is
time to let go of it. After you've cleaned up your messenger, don't forget to empty all that
trash to make room for more get rich quick appeals from Africa, penis enlargers, and lip
plumpers!
