Email Clutter

Tweet

Does anyone else find it hard to keep track of their emails, whether at work or at home? I use Outlook at work, and put some stuff into folders, but even then there are still lots of emails that haven't got a 'home.' And to be honest it's easier to find them in the inbox than using the search function on Outlook to find them when they're in a folder. In fact, I don't find Outlook's search function very good - on my computer it's very slow, and Google Desktop search works several times as fast. At home I use gmail, and its search function is great (as long as I can remember what I'm looking for!). However, I gave up using their folders system some time ago, as it just seemed like extra work. I even wrote about the problem in an article, but like many writers don't take my own advice! http://webupon.com/e-mail/clearing-the-email-clutter/
