Re: Sheer Volume on this List



Hmmm...the number of emails on this list has never been a problem to 
me...it's all about being able to prioritize on the fly and not feel the 
need to read everything I see. I get hundreds of emails a day from work, 
sit 
on conference calls, lead meetings, someetimes from 6am to 6pm, plus 
exchange instant messages with my peers while on conference calls...plus 
keep up with LD emails and other list emails.

It takes a fraction of a second to read the subject heading of an email 
and 
delete it.   For me quantity has notning to do with it. The more time I 
have, the less emails I delete or leave un-read.  Go to digest mode, or 
just 
start sorting by subject heading and deleting multiple emails at the same 
time....all this takes mere seconds.

Or am I not getting something here?  What is taking most of folks time? 
Are 
you tryin to read everything? Seriously, how long does it take to delete 
your inbox.
