Re: No Surprise
Internet = web
Email = Email
The vast majority of my work email is internal. If I worked at one of the corporate offices rather than from home (and thus depend on the Internet for my connection to the corporate network), then I could certainly experience Internet outages that didn't significantly affect email (or affect access to internal websites, remote login to other internal machines, etc). And temporary loss of Internet access would almost always be significantly less disruptive to my work than loss of access to the internal network.
