I have like 500 emails sitting in my in box, and about 44 of them are not read. One problem I have is that I keep subscribing to ezines and rss feeds and forums, and need to get that under control.
But, I agree with the respond or delete plan. I need to just respond to the emails (even if it is one-liner), or delete them.
One problem with the Follow Up email folder (for responses requiring research, like for clients), is that I forget to open that folder, because I don't have the visual reminder (like the stack of emails in my Inbox).
Of course, that just means I need to not be a big baby and create a routine where I check that folder.
