It's obviously a matter of opinion, not fact, as evidenced by the lack of 
universal agreement by fairly reasonable people. I think email is such amazing 
piles of steaming poo that my happiness is inversely proportional to the 
number/rate of emails I'm getting. It simply does not scale well. And like the 
phone, it too easily confuses importance and urgency. Setting up mail rules 
requires duplicative effort, for each user, even when they have very similar 
ideas on notification prioritization. It's ickysauce.
