Book description
• Using your email program’s filing and rules capabilities to allow you to focus on the messages that matter most right away while automatically storing others you want to read and respond to later
• Creating a daily process for checking your email that works for you—and eliminates the temptation to respond to every message as it comes in
• Working through a backlog of messages that have already accumulated.
