Quote: "Some emials can be classified as unclassified, and in the process of classifying an email as unclassified, the unclassified email has been classified. But an email that has yet to be classified is not technically unclassified, or classified."
PS - "Clear as mud," means that something is not understandable.

“Please accept with no obligation my nonsexually harassing, potentially platonic Valentine’s regards as a token of my/our love, lust or friendship within a relationship that we may or may not choose to be monogamous, whilst understanding that the romantic sentiment that it signifies does in no way guarantee the success or progression of the said relationship over any length of time.

Learn English Grammar - with a Rhyme
A noun's a person place or thing,
Or sometimes even times, like spring.
A verb tells what the subject does,
Like "jumps" or "fishes," "is" or "was."
An adjective describes a noun,
Like "happy", "ugly," "rich" or "brown."
An adverb tells you how or when,
Like "quietly", or "well" or "when."
A pronoun takes the noun's own place,
Like "they" for "children," "she" for "Grace."
A preposition leads a noun:
"In bed," "at sea," or "to the town."
Conjunctions are a bridge across
Two sentences: "but," "and," "because."
The interjections, last of all,
Like "Oh!" and "Ouch!" are very small.
