Got this lovely bit of verbiage in a ticket today:

> Subject: Email Issues
> 
> We have been receiving receive errors intermittently throughout the day.
> Please advise.

That's it.

Nothing more.

No “The email address alice@example.com is not receiving emails from
bob@example.org.” No “Alice, at alice@example.com is using Outlook and cannot
receive emails.”

Nothing.

Aaaaaaaaaaaarg!
