Email

A sparrow is a sparrow. Two sparrows, I guess, "two sparrows". What about a... flock, though, a gaggle or a flight?
Sparrows usually come in "hosts", it turns out. Now, if you want to collect not nouns and sparrows but email inboxes in Sparrow, here's the host of actions to take:
›› Don't go inbox-hopping in Sparrow. Have it collect the incoming messages from all your accounts in one place instead.

When Abbas Ibn Firnas was 65 years old, he stepped off a cliff. The inhabitants of Cordoba in today's Spain watched him fall — very elegantly and quite a distance, it seems.
In a safe but bumpy landing, Ibn Firnas injured his back slightly, but he had demonstrated the possibly first successful flying machine to carry a human.
That was in the year 875. Today, launch your emails off Mac OS X Mail and have them land safely as mbox files:

When you search your mail for text, you're interested less in the resulting emails' beginnings than in their relevant passages?
Mozilla Thunderbird in twelfth iteration now shows you where sought words appear in messages and highlights them in Firefox inline search-style:
›› Mozilla Thunderbird is a fully featured, secure and very functional email client and RSS feed reader. It lets you handle mail efficiently and with style, and Mozilla Thunderbird filters away junk mail too. (Windows, Mac, Linux)

Exploding grain flower, by another name, is also just popping corn. The Chinese 爆米花 (bào mĭ huā) is also just as exciting, of course, and ubiquitous at movie theaters, sweetened.
Exploding grain flower, by another name, could also be an enviably red poppy in a wheat field, maybe, or in an email, I'd say:
›› The very red and very beautiful trio is: poppy, poppy, and poppy. (IncrediMail)

A few red giants inhabit this universe, and quite many dwarfs. The bigger dwarfs are white. These white dwarfs are no "white dwarfs", though, which are a smaller, different kind altogether.
Such is stellar nomenclature. If, in Sparrow, you find you operate a "delete" key that is no delete-key, you can change the alignment, though, instead of the naming:
›› To delete an email, you pressed "Delete"; later, you found the message merely archived? Here's how to set up Sparrow so that the "Delete" key will delete emails while "Command-Delete" does the archiving.

Short mail, too, can be in one's way. For messages you need in your inbox only later and to set up reminders for emails you've sent, Shortmail now lets you put mail on the back burner ("chilling" it) for a while.
With or without a reminder, you can relaxedly know whether mail you've sent has been opened in Shortmail for iPhone; sent mail or inbox, Shortmail for iPhone now also keeps messages available offline for reading, sending and search.
Back at Shortmail overall, "Shortmail Connect" continuously watches a Gmail account and automatically imports mail short enough while forwarding exceedingly long mail from your Shortmail address to the Gmail account.
›› Shortmail emphasizes easy, fast and effective communication with an email service limited, essentially, to 500 characters per message.

If there's an island called Great Britain, shouldn't there, amongst the British isles, also be one called Little Britain?
I went through some dozens of islands with as many names. Few of these included "Little" (all far away and part of the Virgin Islands). None included "Britain".
It dawned on me: there is no "Little Britain" — except, of course (the realization came late), profuse with pink coasts, graced with grey megaliths and dotted with now almost black parish closes across the Channel and a bit to the south.
Now, when you want to gather both great email and Bailiwick of email and the Channel emails and little email,Mac OS X Mail gets them all in one file:
›› More than one email but just a single file on your Mac. Here's how to save multiple messages to one combined text file in Mac OS X Mail.

In March 1760, Guillaume Joseph Hyacinthe Jean-Baptiste le Gentil de la Galaisière embarked a ship for India to see venus in front of the sun. Through no fault of his, he missed the transit and, alas, the next one as well. His odyssey home is a different story altogether — about which he wrote a book.
In "A Voyage in the Indian Ocean", le Gentil also discusses saros, and why the name might not be quite correct (an error he had previously pointed out in 1756). "Sar" is the Babylonian word for a number, most probably 3,600; Edmond Halley (through no fault of his) used "sar" for the period of nearly identical solar and lunar eclipses, though, which takes about 18 years. The Babylonians, it seems, called this cycle "18 years".
Now, if you want The Bat! to eclipse remote images in certain emails, you can pick the period for blocking yourself:

Only 8 percent of all directions interest you. If you measure 1 watt there divided by 683, and the radiation waves with a frequency of 540,000 gigahertz, you do have 1.6 mm² (not quite a pinhead) of platinum at the center, don't you, freezing under the pressure of, roughly, one Airbus A318 (a 100-seat jetliner) engine's thrust; or, of course, you're looking at an average candle burning.
In either of the three cases, the luminosity is about one candela or candle. An aircraft's engine could well illustrate a child's love for her or his mother, as could, naturally, a black body and platinum. Let's go with a candle, though, today:
›› Show your gratitude, and your love for mom. (IncrediMail)

She twirls it in her left hand; now she puts it in her right and moves it up to cover the face up to the tip of her nose.
Such is the secret language of fans, found in books and handouts destined to sell — more fans. ("They're watching us," she indicates, and "follow me!")
Now, whatever your email signature is designed to sell, design it well in Windows Live Hotmail with the secret language of boldening, italicization and raising a font's height up to your nose:
›› In Windows Live Hotmail, you can beef up your signature with custom fonts, with bold face and italics, with graphical smileys even.
