Goes with my 3574 unreads on my personal email addy, 65 missed calls and 28 unread texts............................and I give my kids shit about replying to me 3 days after I've asked them a question.
No time for SA Footy or Bali then.

Na, not at all. I keep saying to myself that I'll clean them all up one Sunday but it just doesn't happen. My boss seen me clearing them all up last time it got to 700, he said "I shouldn't be applauding you but that's a great way to clear them out".
I basically do a sort by from, highlight all of their emails, sorta skim through to see if anything in the last week looks important then mark as read and move to their folder.
I bring up in our morning management meeting that we are all too email happy, I received 87 emails yesterday, I hate it when there's an email going back and forth between two people yet they've got the whole world cc'd in on it, I end up interrupting politely asking that they kindly remove my name from their convo.
