Email Bankruptcy

When you are so inundated with email, both genuine email and spam, that you have to delete everything and start over again.
I am so far behind on email that I am declaring email bankruptcy this year.

email

Electronic mail, often abbreviated to e-mail, email, or simply mail, is a store-and-forward method of writing, sending, receiving and saving messages over electronic communication systems. The term "email" (as a noun or verb) applies to the Internet email system based on the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, to network systems based on other protocols and to various mainframe, minicomputer or intranet systems allowing users within one organization to send messages to each other in support of workgroup collaboration. Intranet systems may be based on proprietary protocols supported by a particular systems vendor, or on the same protocols used on public networks. Email is often used to deliver bulk unsolicited messages, or "spam", but filter programs exist which can automatically block, quarantine or delete some or most of these, depending on the situation.

email courage

1. The uncanny ability to act tough and hard nosed while composing an email and then not have the backbone (balls) to do anything about the subject matter while in person or in a meeting.

2. Sending cc emails to anyone in order to prove a point, asking idiotic questions with poor grammar, Exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!
Dave is such a poseur, he is full of email courage and then kisses Scott's ass in the hallway.
