Email page titles typically state the name of the computer used to answer the email, often with multiple exclamation points appended. This title may change to denote [[Strong Bad's Computer Malfunctioning|the computer's malfunction]], and when a new computer is introduced the page title typically refers to the computer being replaced at the beginning of the email. Recent emails have begun using page titles similar to those of regular toons; that is, a simple phrase or one-liner that does not denote the computer being used.

Recent emails have begun using page titles similar to those of regular toons; that is, a simple phrase or one-liner that does not denote the computer being used.
