I hope you'll post more on this topic, as I am interested, but it appears 
to me that everything you have said so far follows from the limited 
bandwidth of an e-mail message.  That is, since we have less material to 
interpret, we have a greater chance of a miscommunication.  (Perhaps I 
should have also added 'less redundancy'.)  'Is there more room for error 
in e-mail than in written mail?'  That's what I'd like to see addressed.
