Organize Your Email

Jessica Duquette just posted a wonderful article about a myriad of different tips on organizing to “keep the ball rolling”.  And I thought I would chime in on the folders for email.  In her post, she mentions several folders for storing email to make it easier to keep under control.  Here’s some that I find useful:

  • Orders: items I’ve ordered or I am waiting for
  • Travel: itineraries for my husband or emails related to trips we are going to take
  • Waiting For: Emails I want to be sure to follow-up on, and I don’t want cluttering my Inbox
  • To Read: Stuff I want to read when I have a free minute – like being on hold :)

What are YOUR folders or email organizing tips?
