30 Days of Email Domination: Inch by Inch
Inbox and bulk message processing just inched its way under 15 minutes today. In addition, only a few messages (3) required additional management, so that did not take much time either.
Check marks for Checklists
The previously-created checklist for processing messages is working out nicely as well. It helps me remain focused and on task most of the time, though I occasionally still get sidetracked by a message here or there.
My enemy, I name thee Facebook
Smartlabels continue to work well, though Facebook messages are always landing in my inbox (when they should be automatically archived with the rest of the bulk messages). I don’t know what to do about that besides creating a filter to delete Facebook messages outright as unsubscribing from these “notifications” has yet to yield any positive results.
