Remarkable correspondence from the consistently unremarkable world of email
There is more attention given to subject lines than one might think. Recently, there appeared an entire music album of songs inspired by subject lines. They are mostly taken from junk mail; one song is called, "Erik, Someone wants to date you."
This edition of Inbox is the culmination of our Best Subject Line Contest, where we have collected the most interesting examples of this practice. All I want to say about the following subject lines is that they are real. Send correspondence to inbox@rochester-citynews.com.
