I think I did the "inbox zero" thing back in early 90s with my first
email account in the university. I didn't get much mail back then. This
was a student account at a time when faculty wasn't using email to
communicate with students so it was just messages with other students
for the most part. 

Today I archive emails about stuff I'm likely going to need in the
future, which means tickets and info for trips and entertainment so that
I can find them when it's time to go. Everything else stays in the inbox
so it's a graveyard of mostly announcements and newsletters and ads. I
tend to move last year's mails to a separate folder around mid year or
so.

As for the email client, I don't know if I have a favorite. I use
Thunderbird and Outlook on Windows, Thunderbird and Kmail and mutt on
Linux, TypeApp and Outlook on Android. Mutt is the only client where I
can update my personal bogofilter database with missed spam.
