Misbehaving Email Client

When you include an excerpt in a reply email, it randomly selects an excerpt from another email sitting in your inbox. When your subject line is something too regular, something you've used before, it generates a new one at random. Sometimes intensifying or removing adjectives.

Whatever happened to mishearing someone? Now you can re-read what they said and quote them perfectly with little effort. Does it still count as communication if there is no noise channel?
