Choose the Kind of Mail Counted in the OS X Mail Dock Icon

Two ∠ make a point in Arnold Schönberg's tennis notation.
'∠' stands for a foot fault, and two of these in a row when serving grant a point. Now, how that point is counted in tennis is, of course, a matter all of its own. Let's cound in more simple a fashion in the meantime and OS X Mail, and make up our own rules — to a point:

Couche Soleil (Sunset) - Free IncrediMail Letter and E-Card

Couche Soleil (Sunset) - Free IncrediMail Letter Download and E-CardIn the solar system, a big bicycle wheel turns invisibly. It moves coils around the earth with its magnetic field.
As in a bicycle dynamo, electric currents are induced in this part OD the ionosphere called, appropriately, dynamo region. Maybe this is what Modern Mechanics had in mind when, in May 1930, they ran "Voltage of Sunset Is Large." (Solar tides that follow the sun's heating across the earth do propel the ionosphere's dynamo in part.)

He kept his mouth shut, of course, but, one night, returned to the chapel and Pietà with a chisel to carve his name into the base. This, the story goes, is why and how Michelangelo came to sign one of his most famous works at a time when this was not the norm, especially not for sacral subjects. Here, in any event, is how to equip Windows Live Mail with a chisel and your signature:

Know iCloud Mail Recipient Limits per Message and Day

It would take about ⅔ of a millisecond to send an iCloud Mail account's daily allotment of messages at the highest frequency with which the honeycomb moth's hearing was recently tested (and found functional, I understand). Just thought you might like to know that.
