  You’re either the kind of person who reads their emails in real time and freaks if that little blue number ever reads “2” or you’re the kind of person who selects their entire inbox and marks it as read twice a decade.

  My wife is the former. I am the latter. I get too much junk. I go through my inbox a few times a day, read what looks important, and ignore the rest. I have 2,174 unread emails in my inbox and a folder called “auto junk” with 5,116 in it.

    Unsubscribe and/or block is a good friend

      Is there a way to delete all emails from a single address at once in Gmail? That would help a lot for me.

        Yes, filter by sender, select all, delete

    I like keeping the unread count low, but I get so many junk notification emails at work I’ve given up on checking.

    See if your email provider lets you whitelist addresses. Every known sender goes to inbox, ask the rest to trash. Great for keeping things tidy and helping to sniff out fake emails from eboy.
