Technically, it could've sent the mail before you even thought about
writing it. Undefined is undefined, there are no requirements. From:

Wouldn't it technically be only within its rights to compile code that
sends the rude email when executed, but not send the email itself?  Or
are the undefined results of compilation not confined to the contents of
the executable file?

Dustin, thinking the world would be a more interesting place if compiler
         writers actually produced such compilers
