Hello, are you already celebrating New Year?
Maybe this is my last question in 2004. What is correct, many emails or much email?

Good question. I would say both version are correct because mail is a mass noun like money or air. It's a bit different with email though. You can say 'I've received many email messages' or 'many emails'.
Or you can say 'I've received much email'.
