I am an e-mail user．When I first started to use the e-mail system. I used to read all my e-mail．I didn’t have much mail．1 was very excited about receiving any e-mail．I gave my friends my e-mail address．Soon I had more mail than 1 wanted．Some of the mail was junk mail．1 was worried．I didn't want my mail to control me．
I've tried some methods to help me get control of my mail．First，I check my mail at the same time every day．Also I try to allow myself only 15-20 minutes every day to process my e-mail．This doesn't always work，but I try．Sometimes I save the messages．Sometimes I just read them，maybe answer a few，and then delete them．Sometimes I'm not at all interested in a message，so I don't even open it．I delete it right away．This is very much the way I go through the mail that the postal service delivers to my home．
These methods are very simple．I have some friends who are very clever with computers．From time to time，they teach me new tricks for managing my e-mail．I've also learned to transfer(转存)some messages to a disk so they don't fill up my mail files(文件夹)．Then I can read them later and maybe use them in my work．I'm still amazed at what e-mail can do for me! I'm still worried，however，about having too much to read．
