When Sarah I. Coole Did It:
Every email I sent with Sarah I. Coole’s address on it, my letter that named Sarah I. Coole, and every read receipt from Sarah I. Coole’s mailbox, in order, each linked where a page exists. Times are Eastern. Chronology, not motive. A read receipt shows a message was opened on that mailbox. It can be declined, and many mail programs never send one, so these counts are a floor, not a total. This page does not claim Sarah I. Coole was the person assigned to answer any of these emails. If any statement here is inaccurate, identify the sentence and the supporting document: see Corrections.
