For a couple of years now, I normally receive over a hundred of emails every day. That does not include the questions and messages I get thru Twitter and Facebook.
It gets worse when I’m on vacation or on a trip where I don’t have enough time to go online. Emails get buried very easily and I wish I can just delete my Inbox altogether.
As of this writing, I have 595 unread emails and a few hundred more un-answered ones. So sorry if you’ve emailed and I haven’t answered back… yet.
P.S. To those who asked, I actually have a personal assistant who helps me out with answering emails, among others. However, I think it only covers like 10% of the emails — ones that can be easily answered and need not have to be confirmed with me. The others are business communications, reader inquiries and people asking for advise, etc.
^ that’s what I did too.. gmail for Facebook flood & attachments, and yahoo for my personal email.

regarding facebook emails, what I did is instead of making new account, I created a folder for facebook emails and set up filter that will directly put all facebook emails to that folder. gaya sa outlook. mas manageable.
gmail filters is a very useful feature. I also use it to filter FB emails just as how Mito described
