I was confused in the past about how stamping as mail and sending
related to one another.  What I've heard most recently has made more
sense to me:

- When an item is stamped as an email, it gains a send button
- Once an email has been sent or received, its send button turns into
  an update button

Whether updates result in new items or changes to the original item gets
us back to the multiple versions of the same item vs. multiple items
which are related to one another issue, which I suppose is a Domain
Model issue.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
