Ok, so you get an email that is so dumb, so infuriating that you immediately hit the "Reply" button and hammer out a response.
You must not hit "Send". Just take a deep breath. Close your eyes. Count to ten. Exhale.
Now then. Don't you feel better?
I don't either...

THIS IS MY PERSONAL HELL with a few people...
I actually got one the other day that was a full 2 sentences in the subject line saying they could not email "anybody". This is disturbing after they just sent me one... (I understand that could be from a host of problems but still...)
...I'd hit "Send"...10 times in a row.
That last one was too funny. I am too a culprit of such long subject lines. Too much tequila? I think not.
