So, there was really no bad feedback on the vacation responder – I think I’ll keep it at 3 times a day, at least until I get someone else to man the fort if I’m not around.
I turned off the “push” on my phone so it only gets mail once an hour – I can always check it at other times. It’s nice, but weird, thinking I don’t have to check it right then and there (especially when I’m driving – you don’t do that either, right?).
I still struggle to not check it myself, it helps if I just close the email page down. It really does make things less stressful to not feel like I need to treat email like a chat conversation, and use it for what it was designed for, which is electronic mail.
