Latest Fad of Declaring E-mail Bankruptcy
June 22nd, 2007 by PG Chic
Today, as I sifted through my hundreds of e-mail messages in my work inbox, I also realized that the messages in my personal Yahoo! account had reached over 4,000 (ludicrous…I‘ve been meaning to clean that up!) Those realizations made me remember reading an article in the Washington Post last month, “E-Mail Reply to All: ‘Leave Me Alone’”. Basically, people are declaring e-mail bankruptcy.
Imagine deleting all of your old messages and sending a message to everyone in your address book saying that you are starting over and in case you missed something important, please re-send the message. Well, I am getting to that point…at least for personal messages. At work, I use my inbox as my “to-do” list, which is probably not a good idea since I will never finish it all. I suppose I would get fired if I decided to declare e-mail bankruptcy at work…lol. My only question: Will this affect my e-mail “credit” for seven years?
