No, its various sites that are set up to send them every so often. Probably glitches on the site they come from.

My ex got involved on a MLM site, and everyone who joined his site automatically got regular emails. They were pre-written, so only had to be set to be sent every two, four or six weeks, various times. I suppose the dates mean they were automatically sent too early lol

Lunar When I was at work, you could date a mail to send at a particular time - can't do it on my home mail!! Angela
