Sending emails has become so mundane that some of us get into a false sense of security. So it’s not that hard to, say, send a fully empty email or, even worse, attach the wrong image or file. Even worse are the emails folks send out fully believing that what they just made works and isn’t either unhinged or deeply bizarre.
We’ve gathered some hilarious examples of emails people have accidentally sent or inexplicably received. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and, if you are brave enough, share your own examples and stories in the comments section below.

Aw. Seriously warmed the cold cockles of my heart. XD I'm taking applications for siblings, btw. The one I've got usually just texts me "HELLO???" and then just "???" if I don't answer her calls.

"To Toby,
We can't believe you have sent us a Dear John letter, we feel so used and abused how could you do this to us? We nurture you only for you to leave us for a younger (will question the better gym) gym. But be like that, we were only using you for your money anyway.
We hope you and your new gym will be happy together! I guess it was too good to last.
Toby if you ever want to come back, we are willing to forgive and forget.
Don't forget us!"

Reminds me of a colleague at a 2-story store I used to work at. Building was old, elevator was broken, customer was in a wheelchair and wanted a bathrobe. Those were on the upper floor. The (female) colleague therefore asked the (male) customer: "Soll ich Ihnen einen runterholen?" which, depending on context means either "Should I fetch one for you from upstairs?" or "Do you want me to jack you off?". Cue me doubling over laughing, the customer deadpan replying "Thanks for the offer, but I'm married." and the colleague going red as a tomato, after she realized what she said.

Did you actually import the word "Siebträger" into the english/american language?!?!? I am deeply confused and my heart sparks with joy!!! Side question: Aren't milfs a self-cleaning device? Asking for a friend...

Possibly Milch, which is german for milk. Badly translated. "clean the milk frother after you foamed milk" sounds more reasonable. To me at least

Do they use Siebträger in English or is that just a missing translation? Oo

Apparently Siebträger means portafilter. It's the thing that holds the ground coffee for making espresso.

"Milf" may the brand or who knows, but my brain keeps on reading it as "Clean the mf after you foamed". It seems to match the tone better!

I once read the first novel of a freaking English teacher and getting "your" and "you're" wrong wasn't even the half of it. I had to break it to them as gently as possible that no, you aren't going to be able to retire on the proceeds from this thing.
