How to Fail at Email – Testing is for Amateurs

I’ve decided to start something new–the “How to Fail” Series.  While we can all read how-to articles, sometimes it’s fun to see the exact opposite.  Like the thousands of fail videos on YouTube where people try ridiculous stunts and fall off their skateboards, bikes, and even off of their own roofs.
