An exchange of emails between friends that snowballs into a melodramic opera.
This is what an Email Opera looks like:

// Message 1: TJ says //
1. /excuses
2. PoF was complicated... Turns out she had a bf. BUT I DIDN'T KNOW, IT WAS ONLY AFTER WE KISSED (we went for a walk after the wall climbing) THAT SHE TOLD ME. Which is bullsh*t. She was unhappy and wanted to see if there was anything better out there. I'm not going anywhere near that sh*t.
3. They added new walls.

// Message 2: EM says //
1. I said stop trolling!
2. Ouch sorry dude! That shit sucks!
/kekeke

// Message 3: TJ says //

1. /excuses
2. She wanted to see me again. She texted me this morning. They've been going out for a year already and she's somewhat ready to break off with him (maybe). On moral grounds, I can't do it unless she breaks it off and there's been an acceptable buffer period.  We actually had a great time right up until that last bombshell.

// Message 4: EM says //
1. Your gay
2. buffer period is not needed after breakup sex I think would be awesome lol.

Continues for another 10 exchanges...

Email forwards tend to be generated by nincompoops. They seem to believe that email domains/businesses/ghosts can track your emails and see how many people you send them to.

Often people believe ill babies will get money from AOL. Or perhaps that sending it to 30 people will grant a wish of your choice, improve your luck and or sex life.

The worst part of this phenomenon is that many people believe it. Please don't join them.

Becoming paranoid and anxious when you don't receive any email for a long time. Most applicable to office mails when you otherwise receive a ton of them (with issues).
Bob: (in worried tone, holding stongly to his coffee in office) I haven't got a single mail from last 10 minutes! Something is wrong!

Kevin: Don't worry Bob, you're just experiencing email paranoia. Take a deep breath and relax, you would get your next shit load of issues soon.

A not-so-subtle way to change the subject when you are about to be faced with being wrong about something. This is a reference to overlooking many many many problems with donald trump due to the single issue of Hillary Clinton's private email server, and using that reason as both a reason and defense for voting for him. This is currently used by trump voters any time any legitimate fault is found of Mr. trump.
Person A: "Mr. trump rants that the media inaccurately covers him but when a reporter is kindly attempting to get his point of view he not only refuses to give it, asking the reporter to figure it out on their own, then cuts off the interview. It seems his real issue with the media is that they WON"t lie for him."

Person B: "But her emails!"
