Eyeballs Are a-Popping…
It’s amazing when the email box is full.. I was clearing over 5,000 emails that I had to put off filing, and it took me a full 2 hours to categorize.
So, those of you who are eager to manage your in-box on Outlook, here’s what I normally do.
1. Create a rule WHEN the email comes in. This will solve your long term eyeball pain problems.
2. Structure your folders according to person and service. If the ‘person’ writes you, file it with the person folder. Usually however, your mind is structured to think of the first thing that comes to mind. So if a software upgrade announcement from “RSStoBlog” comes in, you should be looking under the product, not the person “Michelle Timothy”.
3. Those of you who run more than one company, please put your different company folders separately and the people who have internal mails should get them sent to different email accounts, for ease of filing.
