Doh

in Snarky and T-TTC

DH and I spent the weekend weeding through our crap and cleaning out space for new furniture arriving this week. The whole time I was priding myself on how I have no hoarding tendencies as I was getting downright giddy throwing stuff out.

This morning, however, I have an email from IT informing me my email is taking up nearly 20 GB of space. Oops.

    LOL  At least, e-mail is easy to delete.   Our IT department is always reminding us to delete old e-mail as well.  I think my boss has some e-mails going back for at least 8 years on his account.

    Isn't it kind of ironic that they sent you an email telling you that you have too many emails? ;)

    Wow, how can they do that?  What if you need to keep something for tracking or a project, or whatever, down the road?  I'll admit I have way too many emails, but I know for sure there are plenty that would have needed to have been kept past 30 days.  Yikes!  ;-)

    I am always over my email allowances.  I discovered that adobe reader has an option to save emails as files that you can later search through.  So every couple of months I save everything as a pdf and delete it from my in box and sent messages.

    Emails that I put in the trash can get purged on a regular basis. However, my email is my filing cabinet since the search function is way easier than having to file each attachment (which I get a ton of working with designers) in a folder on my hard drive.
