Busywork

While I usually read my e-mail several times a day, I have been letting my read messages accumulate for a couple of months without filing them in mail folders. So even after deleting all useless stuff, spam, and other message not worth keeping, I had nearly 600 e-mails in my Inbox, and a couple of hundred others in a few automatically-filtered folders.
It took me three hours to go through them all, filing, deleting, removing attachments, and so on.
Yuck. Done now, though.
