Accumulation

Somehow, the emails in my Inbox accumulate to staggering levels. After a long, staggered testing and implementation of one major project, I was shocked to see that my Inbox had ballooned from zero (unfortunate mailbox deletion incident) to 1,300 messages! Where did all these messages come from?! I was stunned. I went about doing some spring cleaning; in three weeks I had the number down to 400. I could breathe easily, somewhat. Yup, somewhat is the operative word there. Of course I stopped doing religious housekeeping and now the number is back up to 900. Fabulous!
