I love analogies. think of it this way. You receive a ton of advertising
material (physical mail) after the ARMA conference because you swiped your
conference badge on the show floor. Now you're inundated with mail. Do I
keep each piece for 30 days? not hardly. I look at them and discard
immediately the ones I don't want keeping only those that have some use to
me. The same with non-business emails
