It's not April 1st today is it?
Apparently, the UK government is suggesting that my email archive is causing a drought ... https://www.theverge.com/science/758275/drought-delete-files-email-data-center-water-uk?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-gbCan't see it myself, I suspect that removing teenager Gentelemens Special Interest materrial woudl free up more space and thus save a lot more water!

I probably don't have to explain this, but it's not your few emails, it's the billions of emails people (needlessly) store (yes, I'm fun at parties).

Ok, now that I'm reading my own suggestion I think that's crazy talk and we should stick to the email thing ;) -

I'll dry myself with paper towels"It's from a song called Syrup by Aesop Rock, and it's basically about agoraphobia.

Well, I tend to move the entire content of my mailbox to a local PST every couple of months until there's nothing left.
Besides, I thought the claim was that all free email services did when deleting an email was to mark it as deleted and they still held it internally?
