That is literally the very first time I've ever had E-mail get lost before I receive it. I definitely didn't see that; had a series of four or five blank messages, from different people (but two from Paul which is why I addressed him; besides, he's usually there to respond).
How annoying! I don't know which I prefer to believe: it was the internet that ate my message, or it was Entourage. I've never seen this before.
