It's been noted that being a nuisance is not the kind of attention that will assist you in your endeavors. In fact, it'll do just the opposite.

a) maemo community/ maemo going super hot in media.
This has never happened. Maemo has always been for great thinkers, tinkerers, hackers and folks that aren't happy with the status quo. Sadly, we're outnumbered by the masses that are just fine with iOS and Android.

b) email servers feeling the rage / Microsoft confused.
They have competent MS Exchange server admins and filters. You'll be filtered out before you make a dent or become noticed.

c) more people joining community.
Doubtful. The golden days are behind us; fate was sealed by a certain board/committee that saw fit to stuffing their pockets and their coffers with devices that would have better served actual and active developers instead of politickers and *** kissers. My disdain for what this community (in some aspects and personas) has become is well known.

d) elop commits suicide.
If his divorce didn't make him contemplate suicide, doubtful that a surge in e-mails would either. Choose a more effective tactic. One that uses diplomacy for maximum efficiency perhaps.

and what do u think whats gonna happen?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. People will continue to reminisce about Maemo and the promise of MeeGo like folks did about Zaurus and Psion. Ahead of its time, taken down by not appealing to the masses.
