Personal email? Squeaky clean. Work email? I keep all of them for later reference. Currently have 6500. It’d be more of it wasn’t for our 1 year retention policy.

This I don’t get. Your work doesn’t archive emails? There’s been many times I was asked a question I knew came up years ago and thanks to the archive of mails I could answer the question quickly instead of starting from scratch again.

That’s how it was at my old job and I miss it. At my current workplace they only retain mail on the server for 1 year. If you want to retain it longer you have to archive it yourself and I just don’t have the local storage to archive all of my email on my machine like that. (External storage devices also aren’t allowed.)
