My mother died last year at Christmas. I don't know what I would
do if I received an email from her.


If I'm remembering correctly, there's an Internet service where you
can send yourself (or whoever) a delayed email. Submit the email and
when you want it delivered... in six months, a year, maybe longer.

What if she sent one of those? Just be sure you don't discard it and
if you do reply, be polite ;-)
