The best way to deal with stressful situations like this is to stop, take a breath and relax for a few minutes. Just getting out the tension will release any anxiety and stress you may have. This happens to me quite often, since I help about 30 people, including 6 managers. Exercise can do wonders.

Another point I would like to stress is to archive your e-mails for a certain period of time that either you or your company feels would be appropriate. You never know when someone would come back to you and tell you that they didn’t ask you to do a certain task. At least you will have proof of it.
