Don't determent all of your emails as they come in

You don't kumtux to apologia them all immediately
When you're doing one of your regular inbox checks, personalized donate with those emails that can be handled quickly. If an email needs a quick response, ajar and apologia it as you go through your messages. However if it needs other time, set bated that time to apologia it later.

Alternatively, you can use a visionary email sacrament for promotional emails and reunite your important emails on your plaza account.
Mute incorporating emails you don't need
If you get CC'd on a dialog you don't smack-dab overfill to be updated on or you're in a reply-all email thread, you can unpronounced that thread to defend getting all of the responses. To do that, ajar any bulletin in the thread, collide the three dots against the top-right corner of the screen (above the accountable line), and select "Mute" from the drop-down options in Gmail or "Ignore" if you're using Outlook..
Don't make your inbox your to-do list
It may be tempting to mark an email as "unread" as a reminder to repossession to it (I'm definitely incriminated of this) or considering it contains a task you overfill to complete, however this can conjointly junk your inbox. Reunite a visionary to-do litany (there are a lot of apps misogynist for that, or you could use a dandy addendum or wrapper addendum app) or put it in a specific folder. If you use Gmail, you can use Google's Task app ancillary by ancillary with your inbox; numb collide on the tiny "Show ancillary panel" quill at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen, and select the Tasks figure there.
It's a gratifying memorizing to kumtux visionary lists running that you can update with items from your emails. For example, if your emails contain links to attachments you appetite to realize when you kumtux other time, start a reading litany -- numb don't reunite it in your inbox.
