He didn't speak to her at all. A couple of days later she contacted him via email only to have a go at him for not asking her how she was. He has made it very clear that he no longer cares about her, and they have a bad history where she hurt him a great deal and betrayed his trust, so he really can't stand her at all. He asked me what my opinion was as to what the point of it was and why she would bother I have no idea, and was just wondering what you guys might think of it.Thanks

 yeah, I have one of those too :)
She does it because she wants to still be important to him. The fact he didnt care shows she isnt, and she didnt like it!
My husbands ex (of 10 yrs!) still pulls this crap. He calls her "the psyco" to everyone else, but wont tell her to go away in case he hurts her feelings. Go figure.

If he were over her like he says, he'd be indifferent and wouldn't care why. Same goes for her and that's probably why she sent him that email.

 Same reasons he broke up with her: she wasn't nice to him and he ended contact precisely because this is how she behaves. That's my guess anyway.
Why do some people do crazy things? They aren't balanced people. They act out. They're dramatic. Who knows and who cares. Tell your friend to delete the e-mail, possibly block her from sending him more, shrug his shoulders and get on with his life. This isn't worth spending time on.
