Realized I was checking email 47 times a day after setting up a tracker

Last Tuesday I installed a simple browser extension to see how often I opened my inbox. By Friday evening it showed 47 checks on Wednesday alone. Most of those were just habit, not because I was waiting on something important. I set a rule to only check at 10 AM and 3 PM starting Saturday. Has anyone else tried time-boxing their email and found it actually stuck?

Missing urgent emails" is the exact reason I gave up on time-boxing too.

Stuck with it for two weeks before my boss complained I was missing urgent emails.
