Put email inside a boundary instead of letting it run the day.

Use the timer with one purpose in view.
Email can expand to fill any available time when every message feels equally urgent. Use a short inbox block to process the highest-priority messages, send replies, capture follow-ups, and stop when the timer ends. A defined boundary makes it easier to return to focused work instead of keeping the inbox open all day.

Questions about email timer
How long should an email timebox be?
Fifteen to thirty minutes is a useful starting range for many inboxes. The goal is to create a boundary, not necessarily reach inbox zero.
What if I do not finish all of my email before the timer ends?
Capture anything urgent, then schedule another inbox block rather than letting email consume the next task automatically.
