I had 4.902 emails from subscribed and unsubscribed websites/services, and I took the chance to delete most of them today. I ended up deleting 4.288 emails, leaving me with 614.

The most emails where from Sobeys, Cineplex, Doctor Who, IMDB and Microsoft, which I unsubscribed for good. I have 3 emails, a personal, outlook(image) more generic and gmail for spams and deals.

I’m really interested to know how others manage their bulk emails.

    GG.

    I never delete anything, although I did forward all my emails from Gmail to Proton and delete them off Gmail.

    Everything is marked as read too although tbh I do that in large batches of a few thousand in one go. I’m very bad at checking my emails.

    I’m not really a data hoarder - I just can’t be arsed to go through them and delete them, plus very occasionally it’s been very helpful to find an random email from years ago. I’m also pretty good at not subscribing to marketing emails etc and unsubscribing if I do (eventually…)

      I didn’t even go through for most of them, I just deleted bulk, who had the most emails.
