Email archaeology

Reviewing and answering fossil emails, senders of which have long lost any hope of getting a response. Usually done when bored to the extent of taking time to clean the inbox.
- Thank you.
- What's up bro? You answered an email from 3 years ago. Are you into email archaeology?
- Yeah, I got inspired by Jordan Peterson to make order in my bedroom, and went on to desktop icons and now the inbox.

- Put your mind in order first.

EMEF (Email Efficiency Quotient)

An algorithm that determins the efficientcy of an email sent by one person to one or more recipients with no body text but just a subject line. AN efficient email will be no higher than 1000. This calculation is as follows

EMEF = ((SU + (REC*SU)) * .75)

Email Efficiency = Subject line count + (Number of recipients * subject line count)/ the percentage of people that read the email
EMEF (Email Efficiency Quotient) = ((SU + (REC*SU)) * .75)

So for your subject line of approximately 50 characters sent to 33 recipients would be (50 + (33*50)) * .75 = 1275.

As per my previous email

This phrase is usually used in the context of business related things, where some manager or employee above you demands for information or input when clearly you've given them it in your last email. Obviously that person has not read your emails nor did they bother to read them. They probably only sent the email because it was their job to do so.
Me: *Gives them the required documents via email*
Them: "Hello. Please submit all documents today. Thank You.*
Me: AS PER MY PREVIOUS EMAIL........
