The condition of being enslaved by the contents of your inbox for an inordinately long period of time. This typically takes place in one of three situations.
1. When returning to work from holidays to find nine million people need an answer from you RIGHT NOW.
2. When your ex gets shitfaced and spends all night writing you their life story, then promises to post compromising videos of you together if you don't reply to them in equally excruciating detail.
3. When it's the holiday season and out of politeness you have to send insincere good wishes to innumerable relatives, acquaintances and business contacts who you haven't so much as farted near since the same time the previous year.

Sorry Bill, I can't come to your cocaine and strippers party. I'm facing three days of ejail after this fucking conference.
