Email overload – managing it during half term
Wednesday February 23rd, 2011, 9:00 am
Ways to reduce the volume of email awaiting your return after a break for half-term include:
- Prioriting what you really need in your inbox and using rules to divert the rest to folders to read later in the week.
- Sending the lot to the Deleted folder and then including a line in your Out of Office message to tell people to re-send it if its urgent.
- Using colour and views on your return if it’s too late to do 1 or 2.
More suggestions can be found in ‘Brilliant Email‘ which of course you could always buy in any good book store and read on your break!!
