View Full Version : How many e-mails in your inbox?
Alan - Vox 07-15-2002, 09:23 AM How many e-mails does everyone have in their inbox?
Ive got 19300 in my inbox, none of it is spam. I delete that as soon as i get it.
Ive also sent 5200 e-mails.
Can anyone beat that?
reloadnet 07-15-2002, 09:25 AM Got 120MB of e-mails in my e-mail client.... nearly 30,000 e-mails received over the past 4 years of use :) I've sent about 9000 at my last count. All due to the games network I used to run, it's slowed down a bit now though ;)
dbzgod 07-15-2002, 09:27 AM I cant top either of you but. I have recieved 13,712 and sent about 6,500.
michaeln 07-15-2002, 09:31 AM I clean my old messages out to often to compare.
Why would you ever want to keep an email from four years ago.
Regards,
Michael
You can use old e-mails incase you ever have to prove someone wrong, but I delete my mail once I'm done with it. I think I have 4 e-mails in mutt right now. :)
Thank god for console clients.
SoftWareRevue 07-15-2002, 09:34 AM I have only 54 messages in my Inbox. :bawling:
But, I have 25 different folders in my email client. All messages don't go to just the Inbox. As I'm too lazy to count them all; I'll just say, "You win." :D
Techark 07-15-2002, 09:45 AM I clean mine every month or so and put them into folders.
Right now Inbox has 5698, Sent has 2690.
I am sure in all the folders there is another 10K or so.

Lonny 07-15-2002, 12:48 PM well 4 in my inbox but I have dozens of folders :)
on the other hand... 8800 in the sent items. . .
Synwave 07-15-2002, 01:18 PM I rarely have more than 20 in my inbox at a time but I do keep all my email in folders in case i need them later.
Its saved my ass a few times when I needed to quote someone who was contradicting themselves!! ;)
mdrussell 07-15-2002, 01:25 PM I have rules to move mail around Outlook, it's like a sorting office :rolleyes:
I have about 10,000 emails in total that I have received... sent about 1,000.
appletreats 07-15-2002, 01:31 PM Inbox: 2243
Sent: 523
Deleted: 27 (I empty it)
ho247 07-15-2002, 02:00 PM Just found this post... I'm wondering if this was developed from my "Microsoft Outlook" thread? Well as it says in the other thread, I've got slightly over 16,250 e-mails, all sorted in folders by domain name, company or person's name.

Backups
- 1998
-- 05-98
-- 06-98
-- 07-98
-- 08-98
-- 09-98
----etc, etc
- 1999
-- 01-99
-- 02-99
----etc, etc, and so on till current. I dont separate sent from recieved. All spam is cleaned out before I move emails to backups. Never know when you may need information from way back when. It happens occasionally with me. Makes me glad I have the backups.
XcaliburWS 07-15-2002, 02:33 PM Hmm...

Phoenix 07-15-2002, 02:50 PM Mine goes back to 11/00 and I've got 25,398 in my inbox.
What really baked my noodle is that one mailing list, whose inbox is a separate folder, has generated 5,399 incoming emails in a little over a year and a half. 80% of those since the first of the year.
must...unsubscribe...

My brother always manages to reformat the HD and lose my mail when he comes home from college :bawling:
