I don&#039;t delete, and just keep everything in my inbox, but marked as read. (This is in Gmail) <br /> <br />I filter out emails from websites or mailing lists, and label them with the website name or category. If they are things I&#039;ll never read, then I mark them as read. (Freecycle for instance generates 100s of emails a day) <br /> <br />To be fair though, I don&#039;t really use email to communicate with most people - I don&#039;t use IM either. Facebook for quick messages to friends, twitter + friendfeed for more general conversations and my blog for an even more general conversation. <br /> <br />I tend to use email for things I would have written a letter for in the olden days.
