How do some of you have thousands of unread emails? Unless all your emails from another account were forwarded to you or something like that.

 

[Fenderputty]

Prior to having a smart phone ... probably 1000+

Now ... 0.

How do some of you have thousands of unread emails? Unless all your emails from another account were forwarded to you or something like that.

For me ... I never communicated through email until I got a smart phone. There would be tons of junk mail. Bill payment confirmations etc etc. I used it when I was in school some, but ever then, I didn't moniter my inbox like I do now.

 

[Big-E]

0 for my gmail, for my hotmail however... maybe 8k? Haven't used it in years but even then it was at like 5k I think.

 

[ClosingADoor]

The unread stuff was newsletters and such.

Sure, most of that I don't read also, but archive it or throw it away, so it isn't classified as unread

 

[Kentpaul]

4k on my old msn email

about 3k on my new live email

I have two email accounts and I read all my email. I don't sign up for junk, only stuff which interests me.

Fair enough, although I don't think these numbers people are quoting include junk mail. Also, maybe I'm just weird but, as I said before, I just can't stand seeing unread email even if it's bill payment confirmation or newsletters.

 

[Parallax Scroll]

If you count the stuff where I hit select all -> mark as read, it's in the tens of thousands.

Nobody ever sends me emails.

 

[Triple Oceans]

Before I closed my hotmail account, I had over 1100 emails in my inbox.

[Hilbert]

At work right now it is 22,197 unread messages.

I get a lot of email at work. And that is only in my inbox, I have sub folders that email is sometimes auto directed in. Stick another 15,000 on that total for all the other folders.

 

[Raiden]

But that is facebook stuff and all that crap.

0. Why wouldn't you read your emails?

Nothing is more annoying then people who don't read their email and take a week for a simpele one line reply.

If I'm in the cc list then I'll get round to it if I'm not busy. If that takes a week then I probably just ignore it - if the person needs something from me specifically they'll send it TO me.

I filter my work email so 'to' me stuff is coloured and in a search folder

23,753. Oh yeah, beat that!

 

[SciencePilot]

Zero for me. I like how everyone in this thread is either zero or in the thousands. I guess there are only two ways of using email.

 

[nVidiot_Whore]

Insert number here.

Insert some words here.

Quote no-one, and no-one quote me.

I'm that way now. If I'm not reading it I"m tossing it. I can't stand having anything on my phone telling me there's something unread. It's been a rather weird transition from barely caring at all to being almost obsessive about it.

 

[Guevara]

Unread? 0
Read and need to do something before deleting/archiving? Less than 10

[Yami]

Zero. I am OCD about my email number count in my dock. Otherwise it's like an unclean pest.

[Mr. E. Yis]

20701. I've had this email since 1998.

 

[Complex Shadow]

since all my mail gets piped to my gmail

i do have separate dummy acc on hotmail though.

 

[soqquatto]

now, 0. during the day it can go as high as 50. I get around 300 emails each day and reading them actually prevents from getting me any work done.

"oh, and another thing, we've added this thing, and now it's urgent, and add this one as well..."

yes I hate my job. I'm a bitter man.

 

[Alien Bob]

500 something. Mostly newsletters I'm too lazy to unsubscribe from

 

[kittens]

Zero.

I can't leave things unread. Which is not to say I actually read everything, but I at least archive it / delete it / mark it as spam.

 

[Regulus Tera]

3, and I already deleted them.
