Question

headphones generating emails!!!

Nov 10, 2011 2:42AM PST

This is weird...but whenever I plug my headphones into my iMac running Lion, I immediately hear the sounds of several emails being sent. But according to my Apple mail, no emails were sent. Anybody have an idea? Thanks

I'm intruding here in the Mac forums, but I just have to ask...

How do you know they are emails? What do emails sound like? Happy

If you have Apple mail then you know the sound. It's a loud swoosh.
