Do you delete your messages after you've read them? I don't. But I've got over 4,000. I've got to do some housekeeping..

Q&A Home   >  Community   >  EP

Some are from EP saying Best Answer, which I can delete, some of which I haven't read..(I apologize-I was either in the hospital or my computer was down) and others I've just simply left there. And yet others I keep for memories sake.

How do you weed out YOUR messages?

    I wish everyone would just keep using the same conversation. That way everyone would show up only once and my inbox would be perfect... Most feel the need to start a new convo every time they message me tho :s

    I don't know why they don't have a delete all button, one page at a time is so tedious.

    Exactly my point. But then again...there are some that I would like to save. My own fault. I wish I could keep up with each one. From now own..I will try to answer each and every one...I can't go through over 4,000 messages and delete those in which I no longer need...

    I look at message from people, tend to skip ones from EP.

    Usually when I log in and see 12 auto "Best Answer" messages, I'll delete them all, since it's easier than clicking on each and every one. Plus, I don't care about getting best answer if it's only because I was the first to answer the question and the question expired.

    Hmmm, were all thinks alike, more to do inside as outside this box huh? I am only concerned w/my home/domain email. I don't give out but to only important things. I have 1000's of email accounts I use for entrances of web sites, misalliance etc...... also my thought on mondays & it all..read on~

    Funny thing here I was thinking how I don’t like Mondays b/c of the anticipations others have for it, the prospects & expectancies that comes w/this day. I don’t want any worthless responsibilities that proves to be fruitless & daunting no matter the efforts put into it all. We live on a dusty planet that promises to keep returning it’s dust partials & ppl have the gull to expect from us & judge us based on these facts! I do not want to attach myself to it all anymore. I want total freedom from all of it. What is normal but an action taken on an apparatus such as a thought to push the ‘click of the mouse’ on options of choices? Other words, what normal but a setting on ur washer….it’s all normal & functional if we can reason w/it things wisely etc…
    Wear them another time it saves water & energy for whoever's sake you please!

    I'm totally different than you on that. I delete as soon as I read it, unless it contains something I want to remember. I hate a cluttered inbox. Funny that I'm that way on the computer and a packrat at home. lol

    I read, reply and delete. I do like SooperSarah's wish that people would just use the same conversations and only show up once in your Inbox...I would probably keep conversations then.
