I actually have to make money. Deleting everything is a bit nihilistic.

And I am not going to unsubscribe from daily status reports on my servers. Those are not "absolutely needed", but it is better to have them locally in my email. Landing all incoming emails into inbox just does not scale!

I was getting at culling surplus/extraneous things you had subscribed to, but if all 500 emails are needed, you do you (and make that money with a heavy cognitive load!)

But it is not heavy cognitive load. Thanks to filters and automation...

I get like 20 emails daily that get through filters, land in my inbox and need my urgent attention. I can not imagine being directly exposed to unfiltered stream of junk, and trying to fish out emails from my boss.
