My lovely spouse is out of town for a college reunion, so handling housekeeping while she's gone falls in my court. One of the things that I've been doing is handling her email.
When I opened her primary mailbox this morning, there were 393 unread messages and perhaps a couple of thousand read ones. Only a handful (about 10) could be classified as SPAM. Apparently, she notes the topic of an email and figures that she'll get around to reading it "sometime"--in this case, more than 5 years.
Mine, on the other hand has about 5 unread messages (from yesterday) and perhaps a grand total of 20 read. Everything else has been filed away somewhere else. On this forum, I have 21 unread notifications, but I know the content--it's been in the email notices that result from someone PM-in me. I'll delete the duplicates in my PM box here when I do a purge to reclaim some space.
My wife is a packrat. I'm not so much.
How about you?
