The waiting period after you send an e-mail that is somewhat nasty or contains a dirty joke to a person that you are still trying to feel out their limits of what they consider acceptable and what is not.
Charlie suffered 48 hours of e-mail remorse until Linda finally replied to his e-mail in a positive way and followed it up with her own dirty joke.

A disease workers obtain (usually ones confined in cubicles) when they are over-eager to recieve an important e-mail. This is common among computer engineers, programmers, and bosses who do nothing.
NOTE: the e-mail monkey is a disease, but is very literal because a monkey will climb on top of your back
(WARNING) It will press the e-mail key with its foot
The only way to cure e-mail monkey is to deactivate your interneuter yourself and go cold turkey (which literally climbs on your back)

Asok: I have an e-mail monkey on my back, but I can quit whenever I want
Asok: I don't need to check it every minute. I can resist!
Asok: But Look! the stupid monkey hit my keyboard with his foot

An E-mail POP (post office protocol) account is an actual E-mail box located on the server for which the address is made. When E-mail is sent to a real POP account, the mail is stored on the server until the user logs in with their E-mail software and downloads it.

An e-mail containing an attachment sent following an initial e-mail that was supposed to contain an attachment but was forgotten.
I typed my prof. this e-mail explaining why my assignment was late and forgot to attach it! So I had to shamefully send a Chaser e-mail like 2 seconds later.

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.
