A type of electronic message that when sent results in the sender immediately jumping out of their chair and following the e-mail to the recipient to discuss it in person...as if the sender were attached to the e-mail by a bungee cord.
Chronic bungee e-mailers tend to arrive before the recipient has even read the e-mail in question and have a tendency to state everything in the e-mail at the start of the conversation making the original e-mail redundant. This activity typically occurs in office environments, but the behavior may exist in other habitats.

She was so prone to sending bungee e-mails that at times she arrived before her e-mail did, making me wonder how she was able to outpace a network that in theory moved at the speed of light.
