"I'm about to send you an email."
I hear this about 8 times a day. Not always directed at me - I overhear it constantly in others' conversations as well.
Not that there's anything wrong with it. But is this REALLY something that requires a heads up? Ooh, thanks, now I'll go mentally prepare to click read! Is there a particular reason we're giving people a heads up before we email them? Is a warning necessary?

usually i say that when i am sending a personal email to someone. like - if i am sending an email to my friend cheryl (who sits one cubical away)... i will say it so that she knows to check her email.
usually the email is about some dumbass thing another coworker has just said or done.
