Are you frequently deleting unimportant messages in your email’s inbox?

I received a minimum of 50 email messages in a day. Many of them come from the earning sites that I joined. Others are spam mails. I have them deleted regularly or every time I log in to my account. I don’t wanna experience again checking out almost 300 messages just in 3-4 days. That’s how busy I am everyday online. I am more busy online than offline. Are you frequently deleting unimportant messages in your email’s inbox?

its really irritating..i have also got a lots of emails mostly from the sites i have joined and i checked it from the particular sites in their own inbox and i dont require it in my email's inbox...and again many spam emails are sent to my inbox also from many other sources..so i delete most of emails without checking them..but sometime i feel that i should check some emails because they may be important...i deleted in one day about 1000 emails..i can not delete my or check my emails daily now a days.

that happened to me too. i regretted deleting readily the mails since some of them are from my friends.so now, i really check my mails and make sure that i have read the important ones. i also unsubscribe in some of the sites so that my inbos won't have the traffic of mails.

Of course the spam mails should be deleted and must be deleted permanently because it wastes space of hard disk. Usually after deleting the spam mails, I'll move mail address of sender to black list, then next time any Email comes from this sender, it'll be moved to "Junk box" automatically. I suggest you do this setup on your mail software Outlook/foxmail... It'll save you a lot of time and won't be so busy everyday.

Well I am really lucky in that because I get about 10 to 14 e-mails here in my MyLot in box per week. I have not joined any earning sites or blogs. I on the other hand frequently check my in box here. Who knows someday I get a great earning online opportunity e-mail. My fingers are crossed and praying for your Good Luck too. Happy MyLotting

yeah, most of us frequently doing this to avoid having full inbox. After reading unimportant messages sure it will be deleted from my inbox. No reason why still keeping those messages.

After reading my e-mail everyday I do delete them. Some are copied and saved on my personal files but mostly are deleted. I keep an empty inbox after each log-out. Spam mails are deleted without reading to. This is true to all my social and other sites I signed and frequently visit.

Unfortunately majority of them I do not delete. There are so many of them, you are giving us very good advise, but deleting them requires also a lot of work, he, he.

I delete alot of umimportant messages in a day. Right now I am really backed up. I haven't checked my email often enough and now I have over 5k sitting in there. One day I will delete them all it just takes forever. Not sure why its so slow.

I have to constantly check my mail and delete messages that aren't important. For example this morning I logged on and had like 20 messages that were either spam or just didn't need to be kept. Don't even get me started on the messages from people who can't tell the difference between the "reply" and "reply all" buttons. I get a good chunk from that and it's pure frustration.

Of course. I delete the unimportant messages and spam mail everyday. Otherwise, the mail box will be fulled quickly. If it happens, my routine work will be affected. The important mail related to my job will be missed. That's really awful. I can't allow this terrible situation to disturb my work shedule.And at the same time ,deleting the spam mail is a annoying work. They are too many.

Most of the times I deleted unimportant messages as it would only clog my inbox. So every time i open my mail then I see my inbox have many messages i delete them all. I only leave the important messages as most messages that i deleted are from spammers.

I make it a point to delete all unnecessary mails in my mailbox everyday. I too get a lot of emails which are absolutely worthless and if I keep them there for a day, I'll have over a hundred to delete the next day, so I make it a point to delete them everyday.

I checked my mailbox more than 10 times a day. So, I immediately clean my inbox as I go through the messages. I usually delete the suspected spam mails as well as forwarded mails. I am not interested in mails which are not personally written. That way, I only have in my mailbox messages which I think are important enough to keep around. However, at times, I think it is good to go back to the earlier messages and delete some old documents, like statements from banks etc, as they are old enough to be useless.

As you have rightly mentioned, once you become a member of the earning sites, there is a deluge of emails everyday. I make it a habit of opening every mail which I receive, and make a quick scan of it and delete it. Of course, since I also receieve my official mail in the same email address, I am careful to save them.
