AmScray 355 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I counted them all off today- excluding disposable ones that I only used once, I have 6 active email accounts.2 are "disposable" accounts for registering at places that you have no interest in hearing from again, or that you know will send you spam (for example, when you had to enter an email address to preview the Jessica Sierra sex tape- that's what these are for). Generates over 1K spam messages a week. Checked once a month. 1 second tier account for registry at places that sort of "matter" but you have no interest in reading their retarded newsletter or little "Pssst" messages (online forums, merchants that I've actually spent money with, ebay account, amazon, etc. Generates 100 +/- spam messages a week. Checked daily.1 first tier account for "important" communications, like financial stuff, credit card companies, banking stuff, communications with random friends who I don't mind hearing from, etc. Generates 5 +/- spam messages a week. Checked a once or twice a day. 1 top tier personal account that is reserved only for the closest family, closest friends and associates. When I get mail in this box, it's either good news or bad news. Generates less than 5 spam messages a month. Checked every 30 minutes or so. 1 top tier business account that I use strictly for business matters. Generates less than 5 spam messages a month. Linked into my new mobile device- check immediately upon something coming in. I can pretty much assess how much a person means to be based on what email address book I have them in. So yeah I'm OCD, but I'm correct to assume that "layering" your emails is standard practice, right? Link to post Share on other sites

showstopper24 0 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I have two from a long time ago when I was a kid. I guess they're still active but I haven't been on them in years. I also have 2 that I created when I was making online poker names but I never use those. Then I have one main one that I use everyday and two other ones (high school, college) that get forwarded to my main one. Although I'm pretty sure my high school email is not active anymore.

brvheart 1,752 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I have 6 email accounts.1. My original free juno account, which I check maybe once every six months. 2. My new personal gmail account, which I check hourly. Probably 10-20 spam emails a month.3. My work email, which I check every minute that I'm at work. Around 3 spam emails a week.4. My S-Corp email, which I check 8-15 times per day, business stuff only. Maybe 1 or 2 spam emails a month.5. One for spam related stuff. I check this once a month probably. I think I'm up to close to 1,000 spams a month on this account.6. A Gmail account that is my actual name, in case I'm meeting new people and want them to feel like they are getting my personal account. I check this account once every couple weeks, since it's never my actual friends. Spam is very minimal.Total saved emails per account (including messages still in my inbox, but all spam is deleted)1. juno just says 999+ and I'm not counting.2. 60353. 144344. 7875. 11376. 276 Link to post Share on other sites
