I need limits!

When my email inbox size limit at work went from 100mb to unlimited something happened, I lost control of my inbox. Friday I opened my email an I noticed I had more than 7200 emails in my inbox. That's not even counting the hundreds in my sent box. The sent box is a good example of how I previously purged emails before the limitless inbox. I have a personal folder named "sent items" (creative, I know). That folder has thousands of sent emails because frankly, to conserve inbox space I just moved my sent items to a personal folder. So I may need an organization class.

After seeing that I had more than 7,000 emails saved, including more than 100 unread (hopefully those weren't important), I went on a mass purging. I deleted more than 1,000 emails in 30 minutes. I didn't bother to look at my current inbox space usage because I don't think it is a storage problem, just an unorganized mess of a problem!

Managers will often try to give their employees some slack in situations. Some people can't handle it and they need limits!!! Just ask me, but clearly don't email me.
