Once a week? Twice? Once a day? Or like me - every time you read your mail?

Does that little spam counter really bug you? You know, the one that says:

Spam (1 bazillion)

Are you forever selecting all spam and hitting delete? Again, and again, and again? 

Well I'm sick of it so I came up with some solutions to my problem.

Mark all spam as read! Then no annoying little counter to bug the clean freak in me. But then I figure I'm likely to let that get out of hand and potentially miss a useful message. So…

Introducting the "When spam hits XXX number, or after X days - display the spam counter again for that session." That way I'm reminded to check it.

Viola, I spend less time reading spam.

If only my mail client could do this… oh well. Will just have to finish writing one. If only I didn't feel like shit and want to off myself instead I would.
