This website was found through reference on AVOTT.

Content

In the World of Year Zero, Consolidated Mail Systems is the result of an amalgamation of all private and government run mail services, both paper and electronic.

As it is referred on the AVOTT forums, the account for nooneimportant is open, which leads us to: http://www.consolidatedmailsystems.com/nooneimportant/

The e-mail which is shown features a description of Opal stolen from a police officer and his reference handbook, as well as numerous crude drawings, including one of The Presence. It is definitely worthy to note that the page reads "ANGRY SNIPER sent you this message on Thursday, Feb 10, 0000." The title Angry Sniper is most likely a reference to the sound clip that features a man shooting people with a sniper rifle and setting off small explosives in a baseball stadium.

Interestingly, if you try to click any link on this page, it gives you a warning:

The page at http://www.consolidatedmailsystems.com wrote:
 WARNING CODE 24.10.4 (All page functionality disabled): You are not the citizen assigned to this account. Close this window immediately
and stay where you are. Authorities will be in contact shortly for appropriate reeducation.

The bottom of the page also lists a footnote talking about an "underground" website, Opalescent Haze. After seeing box with Opalsescent Haze at the bottom of the page - went to top of the page and back down and then another box appeared with the reference to Grace the Teacher.

Note: if you close out of the page and go back to the link then only the Consolidated Mail System logo shows on the page and the address at the top references an "unknown user."
