I've Got Issues

So, there are 6394 messages in my Gmail box. 

WHAT THE HECK IS IT ALL?  Why am I compelled to avoid the delete button?  It's like pack-rat-ism in a virtual sense.

Worse?  There are 1463 unread messages. 

I think I need to take care of that.  My brain feels cluttered.  (More than usual, that is.  :)

    Wow. That would stress me out beyond belief. I look at each unread message as one more thing on my to-do list. My current 7 is manageable. Last week's 40 was overwhelming. 1463 would incapacitate me.

    You should sign up for OtherInbox. It's AMAZING and organizes your emails in a flash. Their website is www.oib.com and I promise it's better than gmail for any email you get from "non-people" like newsletters, mailing, special offer stuff. Anne Smith uses it too and she'll it's praises anyday

    I have a problem deleting emails as well, cause I am a packrat. I thought I had a lot with 1100+, but you totally take the cake with your 6000+ - craziness!

    I use OtherInBox too and I love it! You should definitely give it a try.

    Oh my gosh jen! I would have a panic attack or something...you should just delete them all and start fresh. If something really important gets missed, they'll send it again. Maybe you should just get a new email address all together. Wow. I'm totally getting heart palpitations thinking about it. God bless your pack-rat little heart.

    My boss just got an email from our server that he has too many emails! He has almost 10,000, most of which he has not read, and he has responded to even fewer. Drives me (and others) absolutely bonkers.

    I, on the other hand, have only 19 messages in my inbox. :o)

    How the HECK do you get more than 6K emails?????? Wait, maybe I don't want to know 'cause I'm a little competitive and would want to try it.

    Or maybe you're just a LOT more popular than I am? Yeah, that's probably it.
