Yeah I used to work for "that employer" too. Emphasis on the "used to". In my working life I have found that policies like that are the tip of the iceberg of crap you are not going to want to deal with in the long term

Cruiser15018ythose were my first thoughts too. but on one hand I can see some value in a communication guide for people working with people whose primary language isn't English. but to say you shouldn't have more than 10 emails in your inbox at the end of the day send rather nitpicking to me.

avstuff3308y@Cruiser Sometimes I leave emails in my inbox as a reference to a reminder at a later date. To move an item out of my inbox is to say I don't need this anymore. I would say that you should, by end of day, acknowledged all new emails in your inbox and followup on any pending emails that might still exist in the inbox.

Cruiser15018y@avstuff that would be so much less totalitarian than giving a number limit on the amount of emails.
any remote ranters? is it common for a multi-national company with remote devs to have an email communication guide stipulating things like how long your email should be and how clean your inbox should be?
