New year prompts email users to declutter inboxes for better productivity

As the new year begins, many people are looking to clean out their email inboxes. This can help reduce the risk of data breaches and improve productivity by making it easier to find important messages. To declutter, users can sort emails by size or sender in programs like Outlook and Gmail. Filtering by date can also help remove outdated messages, while searching for terms like "unsubscribe" can identify newsletters for deletion. For those overwhelmed by their inbox, a complete deletion of all messages is an option. This provides a fresh start but risks losing important emails.
