Did you think that statement through? You have to actually compile and
install new changes before they become active. So, while it may take a day
or two to get caught up on your email, as long as you start the
compile/install AFTER you finish reading then you won't be suprised.

Now if you compile/install and only THEN read your email then yes, you will
shoot your leg off. But then its your fault now isn't it.
