I clear my emails once everyday unless I make it two. I only save emails that contain verifications for transactions and such. If they are really important I print em out and file them.
When I recieved 50 or so a day I moved them around into folders marked: answer save friend work
I did have one more but it was rather rude I suppose but telling: Pest this is where I placed the fowared messages that some friends send because they think I really need to know something.

Hoarder. And then I purge. Sounds like an email disorder, doesn't it?

LOL, it does sound like an email disorder.
Kmilyun would be the highest order of deleter. :)
I, on the other hand, am the highest order of hoarder. Last week, someone asked for an attachment that I found on an email in 2003....yep.
I hope more people respond -- I'm curious. I thought everyone saved email. :)

Although over the years I have made ruthless efforts to shed myself of the habit (e.g. bravely tossing out boxes without even looking in them), I am afraid that I too am a life-long hoarder. I actually have a small pile of old 486's - still ready to boot - with old data on them gathering dust.
The other day I came across an old floppy for a C-64 and I felt quite embarrased about it. It's time to get ruthless again, I think.

Wooohooo, finnigh! I have you beat. We have an original ALR 386 in the garage and a Compaq suitcase in our closet. The Compaq has a 40 MB Hardcard in it -- state of the art in 1988. :)
And I just found the Commodore 64 on Sticks' closet shelf. I'm afraid I'm hopeless.

LOL. I'll see you your ALR and Compaq and raise you with an Kaypro II and a 6800 prototyping breakout board :D

Ah, I concede. But I still have the C64 in my arsenal. :)
