Dear Holmesians,
 
Threatning messages and missives were quite common in the Victorian society that
was probably the most complex social structure of the time. Holmes himself had,
on several occasions, helped (or tried to help, as in "The Valley of Fear" or in
"The Five Orange Pips") his clients or others to face this problem.
 
But e-mails, by their very nature, are extremely difficult to track & trace
unless the investigator has a substantial technological arsenal at his/her
disposal. Holmes alone, despite all his intensity and astuteness, could not have
dealt with this problem. However, he would have most definitely made at least
a rudimentary psychological profiling of the perpetrator(s) from the messages
themselves, which, once corroborated with the details regarding the possible
suspects connected with the recipient(s), must have helped in nabbing the
culprits, if and only if he would have succeded apriori in overcoming his
natural aversion to such "gee-gaws" like e-mails.
 
Soliciting more responses,
