 Re: Present Perfect
I have sent three emails today.
=> present perfect that means more the result "three emails". This sentence is only there for emphasizing the result and so it's not important who has sent them. * These are three emails that I have sent and neither more nor less. *
I have been sending three emails today.
=> present perfect continuous that shows more the action "been sending". This one is there for emphasizing the action. * It's me who have sent the three emails today and not another one. *
