Is Your Inbox Overflowing With E-Mail?

I have 31,862 messages sitting in one email inbox waiting to be read.  I'm not kidding! Many of them are promotional messages from retailers so I don't feel obligated to read them all.  But imagine how much time it would take if I DID?  I'm sure you get bombarded with e-mails, too.  Do you feel like a big part of your day is spent reading and writing messages on the computer?  If so, I suggest you click on this link for some excellent tips. https://www.yahoo.com/tech/5-ways-to-keep-email-from-ruining-your-life-90501714124.html  It's a piece called "5 Ways To Keep Email From Ruining Your Life." I saw an interview with the author, David Pogue from Yahoo, so I'm inspired now to make some changes.   Will I declare email bankruptcy?  Will I use Unroll.me to unsubscribe from a bunch of mailing lists all at once?  Stay tuned, I'll keep you posted after I decide how to handle this email overload.

Do you look at emails throughout the day, whenever a new message arrives?  Or, do you only check for messages a few times a day?  Do you delete messages after you've read them or keep them (like I do) because you may want to refer back to them?  Please comment below.
