Do what I did, Sue, and open yourself a Yahoo account. It's free and has unlimited storage. I have thousands of emails in my Yahoo account. :D

The solution to your dilemma, Jess, is to open sub-directories in your email account. As well as having the standard settings such as Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Spam and Trash, my Yahoo email account has an addition setting called My Folders. I have a series of sub-folders in My Folders and shift emails that I want to keep into them, once I've opened them. Anything else is trashed. :D
