I did this for years. From ccmail, to mbox, to maildir, to exchange.
Then one day I just deleted it all. I haven't missed it since. I keep my inbox at zero. Everything goes into tickets and is actioned or is saved as a document if required still and the rest goes in the bin.
In fact its been better for me. Less stress, less crap to backup, less worrying about losing stuff, less window of opportunity if someone manages to root my kit.
The best thing is that I've worked out things can wait.
