I am mentally incapable of deleting an email. What if I was on fire, and the only way to put myself out was to recall an email from 2 years ago? You have to be prepared for these situations. 

LOL - you sound like my wife. I find coupons that expired 3 years ago - she won't dispose of anything.
Unfortunately, I am the complete opposite (not quite OCD) and end up throwing important stuff away

Funnily enough I am the complete opposite in my non-digital life. I love throwing stuff away. Every couple of months I have a big throwaway where I  trash stuff with reckless abandon. My dad's girlfriend is a feng-shui practitioner and she gave me a good tip: if you can't decide whether or not things should be thrown away, put them in a trash bag in the closet. If after 4 months you have never had cause to open this trash bag, throw it out. 

Last week's leftovers might get a little ripe in the closet.  just sayin. 

I have an easy way to keep my inbox neat.
I haven't given my new email address to anyone.

 Comcast works great for me because it has folders.Sounds similar to the Google setup. I have a misc. folder and a folder for things I buy online. Who knows when I might need that software info again,or warranty info? Of course there is the trash folder.I use the misc folder for things I might want to look at or for things I need to remember.

 Just the other week I needed info for software I bought several years ago, came in really helpful.

If you were on fire would your first though be to turn on your computer, wait five minutes for Windoze to boot, call someone to work the mouse for you because the skin on your hands is melting, open your email program, wait another five minutes while 10 years of spam emails are indexed, search for keywords "HELP ME I'M ON FIRE FOR F*&KS SAKE", swear at BSOD as fire spreads from hands to keyboard to mini tower...
 
Or would you just run around shouting "HELP ME I'M ON FIRE FOR F*&KS SAKE"...

Love it!
