Addicted to my E-mail

So recently I've noticed a trend with me. Whenever I get on my computer, the first thing I do is open up my e-mail, sort through to get the trash out, read the Pay per reads for those sites, and look at any opportunity from the sites I'm on to make a little money, respond to personal e-mails, and then go through the mylot e-mails. Then I continue to leave it up through out the whole time I'm online, always getting excited when I see I have a new e-mail. I think I may be addicted to my inbox. lol Does anyone else watch their e-mail this closely while they're online?

Before I started to college I never hardly checked my E-mail. It took me a while to get used to regularly checking it everyday, in fact I messed some important E-mails from my professors and classmates because of this. I see nothing wrong with you checking your E-mail often if this is the way you make money. Although I have just graduated, I still check my E-mail everyday in order to see if a business has replied to my job application.

That was another time in my life that I checked my e-mail like crazy. When I attended a semester of college, I was checking it every few minutes because I was afraid I'd miss a class change, which I had already done once. E-mail is becoming a more important part of keeping up with my life, that a telephone ever was.

of course i do. There are almost 1600 unread emails in my inbox. I don't when am gonna complete reading them. I spent almost an hour always before i log on to any site, picking up the more important or attractive emails in my inbox.

Glad I'm not the only one. After I posted this, I realized it's became an important part of keeping track of sites I make money on, so it may not be such a bad addiction, as it's sort of part of my 'job.'

Nowadays I'm also addicted to my e-mail.whenever I am online I'll check my e-mail first, then only I will search for other things. The reason for this behavior of mine is that I'll get some mails from someone special for me... :)... Therefore everytime I try for to be online.

Once I have cleared the necessary emails, I will just leave it there. I won't be looking at it constantly unless I am expecting an important email to arrive. I would not say I am excited when I see an email. More like curious than anything else.

I'm more addicted to this site than to my Email. I do check my Email every day just because I don't like to have many unread mails. I'd delete most of them since they are junk or spam mails and I like to keep a clean, concise, and updated mails only.
