I have two email accounts, but I rarely get messages (regular or junk) on my second. In the meantime, Stephan deleting all those 325 messages w/417 returning is sort of like the Lernaean Hydra of ancient Greek mythology: take one of its multiple heads away and more grow back in its place.
Reminds me of the old days online with AOL when we were greeted with “Welcome. YOU’VE got MAIL!”. That voice guy was SO thrilled and excited about it. I wonder what his voice would sound like today?
Yup—my e-mail is a never-ending battle. No matter how much I read/reply, I still have a TON in my inbox. At least I’m popular (mainly to mailing lists) … ha.
I average about 150-175 emails a day from two email addresses, get a screening program and your life will be easier, but then the comic wouldn’t be funny.
Stephen, I love your humor; love your comic art, your characters, your philosophy. Wish I could give you a hug, look you in the eye, and say “Thanks for the gift of you and Pearls.”
Being retired has cut down my email quite a lot, since I have no friends (kinda like Rat). Most of what I get is begging mail, either from political groups/causes or from charitable organizations. —Very much like my Snail Mail, in fact….

Will he write-off the computer as a business expense?

Hey, now we all know Stephan’s email address – be sure to email him!

I keep one account for mailing lists and one for people I actually know. That makes it much easier to deal with.

Is this the first Sunday that featured SP in every single panel? It’s also weird not seeing, Rat, in this one

Gives a whole new meeting to “firing up” the computer. Had trouble connecting to the internet this morning and came close to feeling like Pastis.

But look at all that is saved not bothering with envelopes or pens or paper.

Pretty sure he’d have to kill the email servers at his ISP.

does this include the hate mail?

I have 30,275 unread e-mails in my inbox…not exaggerating. And this is after unsubscribing from many things. There’s no going back. It must be burnt.

I receive two to six emails per day from sites I subscribe to or people I know. No spam; NONE!
Thank the god(s) of your choice for duckduckgo.

I wish I got that many emails. In my personal inbox of course.

This is the least believable PBS I’ve ever read. Like anyone could ever clear their inbox! Ha!

Just log out of your email account, Steph. WAY better than burning down your computer. I would NEVER burn my computer no matter how mad I am!
