How often do you check your email?

[Makeo]

I check mine every day, usually more than once. If I send an email I expect a reply within 24 hours.
Seems like some of my rl friends may not check theirs for up to a week and often longer. wtf.
How can they function without checking their email more often.

I guess this topic is also a reflection on those people we know who aren't as computer literate or obsessed as we are. What on earth do they do with their time?

[Skanky Burns]

Don't know. I opened this thread just after checking my email for the 19th time today.

I let my router check mail every 150 seconds and my computer rings, when mail arrives. That makes for a good PBEM pace . That makes 576 times per day.

The real email with the PBEM games and stuff, every 10 minutes or so.

The hotmail junk address, every couple weeks.

Hmm, turns out i'm the amateur. I'll check mine between 5-10 times a day but didn't want to put that in the original message for fear of being shown to be a freak.

All clear now though.

I check my personal email 7 or 8 times a day I suppose.

[Ecthy]

hand ful of times a day at max, sometimes I forget it

it's not like emails are the most important of all media for me, most communication I do on messengers today

used to get and send like 10 mails a day before I had ICQ, mostly to/from Apolytoners. then I got ICQ.

Somewehere between 1 and 20 times a day (depend if I´m home or somewhere other during the day)
but there ae also times where I check my eMails just every couple of days

[Solly]

2 or 3 times a day.

[CerberusIV]

I believe that people waste too much time with compu....

Excuse me, I just need to go and check my email.

[Verto]

I check my email once a day, at 4:15 PM CST.

[Wittlich]

If I had to put a number on how many times I check my email, I would have to say over 15 times a day (but then, I've never kept track of how many times I check).

[Az]

If I remember, around 5. But sometimes, it stays unchecked for a couple of days!

you luddite.

Let's see:

auto-check each 3 minutes (In the time my computer is turned on), this makes 20 times per hour... about 8 hours a day (on average), will make it 160 times a day...
