    Imagine someone sends you an invite to a meeting a couple of weeks or months out. You accept. The next day you need to check something that was in that meeting invite. Fuck, was that meeting set in march or april? And what was it called? There are like three plausible names for it… Woldn’t it be nice to just scroll down to yesterdays emails and have it there?

    Either treat invites as a message, or do some completely separate calendar-notification system. But the inbetween is kinda the worst of both worlds.

        I have hundreds if not thousands deleted emails per week. Searching the deleted folder is a pain.

        Im glad this topic got brought up because I thought I was the only one having this issue.

        Thank goodness I only have to attend about 10 meetings a month.

          Honest question: how do you have 1000+ deleted emails a week? Do you process one email every 2 min for 37 hours a week? They cannot be important all of them, right?

            The company sends my team unnecessary emails. Everybody on my team has a rule to have them auto delete but they still show up in the deleted folder.

            My team also receive 20-40 emails a day that should be read but aren’t worth saving that also get deleted.

            I work for a known global company.

            The root cause? No. Unnecessarily making problems worse by deciding that everyone wants their meeting emails deleted when they accept? Yes.

            I just don’t accept meetings to solve this
