I use folders to organize stuff, but that does not always work and I hardly ever look in the folders. So my inboxes are like your, an email log with hundreds of old messages. Scary. Good idea.

I really like Gmail's iPhone and Web interface for when I occasionally need them while on the run. Its using them every time every day to check my email that I get frustrated with them. Its not their interface's fault, but rather that they get mixed in with all my other browser windows. Having an app that runs on the native OS typically is easier to separate. @Eric So far these last two days it has been hard from keeping my inbox from growing. Its been good for me because I now can't procrastinate (and eventually forget) responding to certain emails. Hopefully I can keep this up for 30 days and make a habit out of it! :) @Joseph

Awhile back, before I had Internet at home, I was using the iPhone to check my email before I came into the office and after I'd left. I had the same thing happen, where some stuff would fall through the cracks. My solution was to stop checking email on my phone... but your solution is better. Hey this is a pretty good idea.
