A quick way to get to Inbox Zero

This is cheating.. but it feels so good.

  1. Switch to Google Apps for free awesome email and calandaring while keeping your domain name.
  2. “Archive” all of your non-recent email.  (Hey, you’ll get around to it, right?  It’s not like your deleting anything…)
  3. Connect your IMAP client to Gmail.  You will see only a few of your recent messages that you didn’t archive.  Act on them and delete.

Congratulations!  You’re at Inbox Zero!
