Mine is currently zero, but I've recently had a big clear out, as there were thousands of them. Trying to do it everyday now

2k unread but they're not really personal emails, they're all pretty much spam. I really need to do a clear out and an unsubscribe to all the crap I don't open.

BrieAndChilli · 13/02/2023 16:15

48048 unread. I get so much spam or newletters i have signed up for at somepoint that i tend to just read through and only open the ones I need to. I need to get on top of it as a few years ago I had 140,000. I deleted them all in batchs but ut has crept up again! My work email has none and I keep on top of it but I suppose I am paid to do that!

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 13/02/2023 16:15

Thousands with about 300 unread - and that's before I look at the folders.

LlynTegid · 13/02/2023 18:16

None unread and about 30 not in a subfolder.

drunkornot · 13/02/2023 18:18

Close to 15k unread but most of that is marketing. Every 6 months or so, I do delete all the marketing emails and only keep the important things. I have no idea how many emails I have in total, I have used this email for almost a decade.

InsufficientMum · 13/02/2023 18:20

864 but I haven't looked at my other account for months!

Nacknick · 13/02/2023 18:23

72,978 unread

glad it’s not just me @MiltonRoad and @BrieAndChilli

Tireddoggymum · 13/02/2023 18:25

Co incidentally I have deleted over a thousand emails today! Still have 7000 !

Spicycheese · 13/02/2023 18:26

Tens of thousands across my accounts. I rarelt get anything worthwhile to my personal or work accounts tbh, the vast majority are just crap spam, newsletters, sign ups etc I have a week coming up, to sort out a lot of admin stuff including my emails, unsubscribe etc.

None.
My inboxes get sorted daily.
Think it's easier to keep on top of them on a pc or laptop than a phone.

Itcouldhappenabishop · 13/02/2023 18:29

43,918 unread emails

Wallywobbles · 13/02/2023 18:31

Every email in your inbox or being sent to you increases your carbon footprint. Unsubscribe systematically.

IsThisNameTaken · 13/02/2023 18:32

78,250 unread on gmail and 150, 052 on yahoo ... I'm sure I've read everything important though!

GiltEdges · 13/02/2023 18:33

Zero. I check my emails on my phone multiple times a day, and either file or delete as I go.

Mañanarama · 13/02/2023 18:34

Currently 7 unread and that’s only because I’m leaving then there as reminders. I couldn’t cope with having thousands of messages!

mrsmoppp · 13/02/2023 18:36

76,241 unread I've recently gone through and deleted some too

aibutohavethisusername · 13/02/2023 19:49

45 unread

TokyoSushi · 13/02/2023 19:59

51,431 all either read or deleted, accumulated over about 12 years.

coffeecupsandwaxmelts · 13/02/2023 19:59

None.

ShinyPikachu · 13/02/2023 20:00
  1. I had hundreds of thousands at one point. It took me a while to clear them all.
