How often do you clean up your email accounts?

I check my email everyday, reply and delete all, clean the junk mail box everyday, I don't let it accumulate.

I try to just read at least 10 e-mails a day & go from their

Not nearly often enough, Dejean. I have quite a few email addresses, which are used for separate and distinct purposes. The only one that I clean up daily is my business email. The others I tend to use as storage. Of course, I don't include anything that I would mourn the loss of. For those emails, I save them to my hard-drive, then back them up on a portable harddrive. The rest I either delete immediately as junk, or deem as important enough to save, though not critical. I do have email accounts with my ISP that are limited to a tiny bit of space. They are automatically cleaned out by the ISP every 30 days -- anything older than 30 days gets deleted. It's just one less task for me to complete. The other, national emails like g-mail or yahoo contain hundreds of messages that I've just allowed to be stored on their servers. I figure if Yahoo is concerned with bandwidth, then they will embrace the auto deletion plan. Until then, it seems that the few kb that my old messages represents is of little consequence to 'their' server storage capacity. I wouldn't begrudge them at all if I logged in one day and found that they had cleaned house. It IS their prerogative, as I see it, since they own the storage medium and allow me to use their service at no charge. Sincerest thanks to them, by the way.

I'll go through my inbox and delete useless/junk email every so often. Believe it or not, I still have emails (which I had placed in folders a long time ago) that I have from five years ago!

i nearly never clean up my email. it's so unnecessary thing to do...

I clean my Email Inbox Every day, but I have many Email account for different purposes so I clean some of them day after tommorow. I love clean Inbox means without spam.

i don't check mail regularly. I delete e-mails like never. LOL. I mean, I don't really bother deleting old mails. ONLY SPAM and those people I dont know, or when I feel that it's not important - its directly into trash.
