Subject: Re: Counting those e-mails



I got an e-mail from ADS-L, but I don't yet say, I got 5 e-mails from

ADS-L. I say, I think I say, I got 5 posts, 5 messages, 5 email messages.

But I think it won't be long, especially since all the 6 year olds in the

neighborhood treat mail as a count noun. Dennis, you got 3 mails today!
