Heaven forbid, how did you become so utterly dependent on this technology? You're probably one of those who insists in using your phone instead of paying cash or using cards. You also probably use Twitter, Facebook and Google's Gmail too.
If so, then you can't be helped.
If you organize thing right you don't need to be so dependent on ephemeral technology (unless you're in Communist China, governments haven't made email compulsory yet. If they ever do then I'd demand free hardware to participate).
BTW, I'm not an email Luddite, I have and have had email addresses since the late 1970s (in the days before the internet) using The Source etc. and after that I've run my own email servers and so on. Right, I was in the vanguard of the email service but I've never let it rule me or my life.
P.S.: it really isn't that hard, for years I successfully ran a large IT department in a well-known organization and I refused to have an email address because I got damn sick of the CEO defaulting to email when all he had to do was to walk out of his office door and into mine—or use the good old POTS telephone! Yes, there are still many alternatives if you look (that is, unless you actually like being ruled over).
