It's a good feature idea (I implemented a similar one in my open source webmail application a few years ago, I called it "freeze folder") but to go as far as "Paradigm shifted. Game changed" is over the top.

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
I currently work as a PM in a big company. Yesterday I've got slightly over 200 emails; it is a typical day. Granted, some of those were CC:, and people like to have one-line replies, but I still have to read each one nevertheless just to make sure it is not something I need urgently respond to.
Set up a filter, and dump all the CC ones into a semi-spam folder. If it's important, you should be a "To". If it's not...
Or just turn on Priority Inbox in Gmail.

#35I guess I'm old fashioned in that I pause my inbox by closing gmail.
A nice feature of Inbox Pause is that it will actually prevent messages from being sent to your phone or mobile device. So, its truly a break from email. Additionally, if you have a huge pile of email you need to work through without the distractions of new incoming mail, closing Gmail isn't really an option.

Oops, sorry about that. It looks like we forgot to include some error handling code. An error message was supposed to appear there.
I'm guessing that it's an issue with cookies. Do you have third-party cookies enabled? Try enabling that (or create an exception for inboxpause.baydin.com). If it still doesn't work, please email us at support+pause@baydin.com, and we'll take a look. Thanks!
