Outlook: Where's My Inbox?

Here's a surefire way to tackle that multitude of email messages:

Every day, review at least 5 messages for action/delete/forward.  If you do this consistently, your Inbox will eventually shrink to a manageable size.  You may decide to use the parameters of 5 minutes per day to do this instead of 5 messages; use whatever works best for you.

This is also a good strategy when your drives are starting to fill.  You save items every day to your various drives, but rarely take the time to review for deletion.  The time is now, 5 items per day or 5 minutes per day!
