Indeed. And I still have my boss's email telling me that I need to go 
read the Procedure Document for the operation of the water purifier in 
the Oregon lab. But once these little political battles are over, 
there's usually no reason to keep the email.

The bottom line is, I don't receive much email in the first place.

(Well, ignoring all the auto-generated stuff - which I do!)
