Communication from a mile away (1-4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

1-4

e-mail

'communication' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a mile away' is the wordplay.
'away' indicates an anagram (letters move away from their original places).
'a'+'mile'='amile'
'amile' is an anagram of 'E-MAIL'.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for e-mail that I've seen before include "Messages via the internet" , "Send a message" , "Electronic missive" , "Fast communication" , "Messages between computer terminals" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
