Do u check your email accounts often? Or r there HEAPS of unread emails?

I have several email accounts and use a program called IncrediMail (kinda like Outlook Express) to download all of my emails so that I can go through them later. I have 4 email accounts, but the program only downloads from 3 of them - the other is a gmail and has unlimited storage so it doesn't need to be checked a couple of times a week like the others, even so, it has been spammed which just drives up the number of un-read emails =( Being a mum of two boys with autism, there simply isn't any time to sit down during the day to read them. Even when they are at school/kindy, there is always HEAPS that needs to be done - it just never ends =) Which means that I don't get to go through all the emails that have been downloaded. This evening, I was shocked to see that I had over 6000 un-read emails, from ONE account only! EEECCCKKK!! I scrolled down the page to discover that some of them dated back to Jan 2009. . . With the other two accounts, well, one had over 2000 whilst the other only had about 1000 un-read emails. I honestly didn't think that life had become THAT busy . . . =D Do you use a program, like IncrediMail or Outlook, so that you can look at them later on? Do you regularly check your emails thoroughly, dealing with the subject matter right away so that you are able to delete the message? Or, like me, do you have all good intentions of going through them but find that there is always other things that NEED to be done? Thanks =D
