Can email storage be limited?

I've had the Atrix 2 for almost a year but am new to the forum.

Is there a way to limit the number of emails it carries to only the most recent? I seems like when I delete emails, the system reaches back, sometimes over a year ago, and brings up an old email as a 'new' entry. Due to some disturbing events in my life, sickness, deaths, it can be quite rattling and disturbing to receive bad news all over again thinking that it's new news.

I was physically upset when I got one such email wondering how I was going to break the news to my wife...only to learn that it was an 'old' email from last year. Reliving the event ruined my day and the phone almost ended up in a lake!!

Why the hell does it have to do that? How can I put a limit on emails?

Does this occur with your gmail account? What email client are you using?

Thanks,
