    Do you guys keep ALL the sponsors e-mails?

    Damn, I just started cleanning my Outlook Inbox, and I didn't even realize: I have over 2000 e-mails, with over 1k unread!

    I'm creating 1 folder to each sponsor I have to make thing easier, after that I'm reading alll e-mails and hopefully deleting over 1500 of them!

    I guess I'll spend my whole night in this task, huh?

    I'm just a newbie.

      I have a habit of keeping all emails from now to years and years ago.
      I just put them on disk.

                    Many people are freaked (wishful thinking, maybe) by my level organization, but I am sure that is merely because I have recorded their words since 1999 (a powerful tool, being able to call someone on their bullshit/hypocrisy)

                    E-mail (spam / unsolicited, junk and marketing mail excluded) is no different than physical/letter mail - includes instant messages (ICQ, MSN, yadda-yadda)

                    I provide support for all webmasters, all pay site members, sales (in and out), etc and I feel retaining ALL valid e-mail is simply the proper thing to do.

                    Since 1999:
                    - I've kept all e-mail (never archived).
                    - I've created a specific folder for all aspects of our industry (each sponsor, each billing systems - includes sales notification and different join values - vendors - content, ISP, software and so on) as well our mainstream divisions.
                    - I've set rules for all e-mail (direct mail to the proper folder, spam listed as ADULT or JUNK).
                    - One thousand-e-mail received per day (average) - none are left unread.
                    - I have a dedicated drive to this alone (all e-mail received are converted to plain text prior to my opening ? I can not stand, nor do I appreciate HTML format e-mail.)
                    - If I have ever communication with you, you already have a special place in my Outlook.

                    Before joining the cyber-age, I've known the importance to maintaining a proper file system (you know, hardcopy ... paper ... file cabinets). I guess that is part of the reason why I do not find spam a problem ? 90 some-odd percentage of spam sent to me ends up in the JUNK folder. (Oh, if you have horrid e-mail skills, such as no text in subject line or message written in subject line, you are considered junk, after one warning)

                          Man, you are probably the guy that sends the most e-mails to me!!

                          I just deleted around 50 of your e-mails or so...

                            I know have "only" 336 e-mails on my inbox. 83 unread.

                            I'm too tired to finish this today. I'll keep it up in the morning.

                              No, i delete sponsor emails once I read them, usually they are full of useless crap anyhow.

                                      I have emails going back 3 years. We keep most of em. Outlook is great for this. Export to PST - dump from main mail box. Back up the PST - open again in years to come to read back - if one deserieth this.

                                        Nah. I dump em in a folder. 30 days, and if I haven't read it by then, auto deletes.
