Delete

Suppose you have a trash can that gets filled up. What do you do? That’s right, you empty it.

So why is it so hard for people to do that with their email? Here at work we have 125 MB limit on the size of your mail file. When you pass the limit, you can’t send mail. I constantly get calls from people in a panic saying they can’t send any email.

My answer is always “then start deleting.” It’s an extremely simple thing that very few people seem to understand. Delete, delete, delete.
