You can immediately process an email, but only if it will take less than 2 minutes. This 2-minute rule enables you to reply to important emails, or take an action that has a priority. On the flip side it will protect your precious time from less important emails. Processing an email can mean several things like sending a reply, creating a to-do, or sharing an update to a colleague. As long as it takes you less than 2 minutes.
If you need more than 2 minutes to process the email, you can postpone it. My trick is to “Star” an email so it shows up in my Starred folder. Moving the email from the Inbox to Starred is primarily a mental win as it allows you to achieve Inbox Zero, and you know that everything in Starred requires a bit more attention.
