An email, usually very short, sent for the purpose of testing whether the email system is working. The sender's purpose may be:
- to find out whether the sender's outgoing email is configured correctly
- to troubleshoot the end-to-end connection between a sender and recipient
If the sender is able to find his solution with no response from the recipient, the test email will usually contain a terse instruction like "ignore this email."
If the sender needs a response from the recipient in order to complete the test, then the test email will say something like "let me know if you got this."

Get the test emailmug. An informal way of greeting a man or boy. Usually it's friendly and complimentary.
It sometimes has a sarcastic tone, implying it's time to take him down a notch.

Get the big guymug. Perhaps the biggest number I could think of when I was, like, six years old.
(True: if you ask a mathematician, it's not really a "number." But when I was, like, six years old, I didn't give a flying fuck.)
(Also true: As soon as I said "infinity plus one," my buddy would cleverly outdo me with infinity plus two.)

You couldn't beat me, because I had my fingers crossed.
Yeah but I had all ten fingers crossed.
Yeah but I had all my fingers and toes crossed.
Yeah but I had infinity fingers crossed.
Yeah but I had infinity plus one fingers crossed. Ha ha ha ha ha!

Get the demomug. Around 1994, a "syquest" was synonymous with a 44 megabyte removable disk, sold by SyQuest Technologies. It made a funny clattering noise when you used it. The company came out with subsequent improvements, such as the "EZ135" 135 MB disk, SparQ 1.0 GB, and SyJet 1.5 GB.
Their competitor, Iomega, succesfully pwned the EZ135 with the smaller, slower, but prettier and cheaper 100 MB Zip drive.

Can you send me that Photoshop file on a Syquest?
No, dude, that's so early 90s and wrong. Zip it and put it on a zip, and zip it over to me.

Get the syquestmug. A metaphor for how a sales organizations churns through leads.
initial lead -> cold call -> qualified lead -> money deal
At each step, more potential customers get weeded out. Hence, the funnel.
