Sadly my company decided the Gmail web interface was the only approved way to access email and blocked my email client (and all others). I probably check email once a month now to see if my invoice has been accepted, and ignore the hundreds of unread emails.

My work outlook email reads 85k unread messages. Its the issue when you have been in ops related roles for a while in a enterprise. There is so much automated crap that gets sent your way. You can filter etc, but there is always one important thing that arrives from the same email which means i cant just push it to the trash... i mean archive folders. At this point my goal is to at least reach 100k before changing jobs.
