I'd like to grab all of the distinct emails, and then return the rest of the columns once per unique email. So if there were 2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the table, but the rest of the row data was different, I'd like to just grab the first (or last, it really doesn't matter) row of data when the query runs across [EMAIL PROTECTED] ->

This returns every row in the table, and I looking for only unique email addresses, and the data that comes along with it.
