Inbox under control

[jbailey]

I have my email inbox finally under control. I started with 3000-odd messages in my Inbox a few weeks ago, and decided that I wanted to get my Inbox truly down to messages I hadn't replied to but intended to. I had a few still from when we moved a year ago, and I got to the last of those today - and found out that she's on LJ as well (Hi, Peggy!)

After this, the only one that's not from sometime in the last past week is a message about HPPA ELF ABI documents and LSB.

With some luck I'll be able to keep it this way!

For the saved emails, I have an Inbox-2006, Inbox-2005, etc. For the needs response, I'm trying to just use the Inbox for that. If I have more than 4 or 5 things that need a response and I'm behind on them, I'm screwed anyway - mostly because if it's so big that I can't respond to it right now then it's probably going to take me a while to answer it, and having them queue up elsewhere isn't going to make that easier.

So far I've been holding my own on this, though. The hardest part has actually been sorting it down to *this* point.
