3. Logistically impossible anyway due to the sheer numbers (1,800 texts per second). I have been working at home today and have sent at least 40 e-mails in the past 10 hours.

4. Encode all your e-mails. Let's see GCHQ break enigma again, or use one of the more secure virtual coding machines available here: http://users.telenet.be/d.rijmenants/ That should keep 'em busy for a while.

Not that any of that would stop them from pursuing this idiocy anyway.
