For some reason, email seems to be the worst possible mode of communication known to man. Or, at least the one people feel the least obligated to respond to.
Over the past several days I have sent emails to many different people for various reasons, primarily because that is the only contact information I have for them. Now, I find myself sitting here day after day without a single response. Urgency appears to have nothing to do with the priority of people to respond to emails.
I have not received failure to deliver notifications. And, I know my inbox works, because I still get the daily spam load. So, this means that people have received my questions, and are just letting them sit and rot in their inboxes.
Unforgivable.

I hate e-mail too. At work everybody who makes more money then I do seems to just stare at Outlook 2003.
You should create a website to start the beginning of the end for e-mail as a protocol.
Email is not a protocol. Email uses protocols.
Regardless, email is the not problem, the people that fail to respond are the problem.
Maybe no one wants to hear your “presentation” about a great “business opportunity” that involves “direct marketing.” Either that or they don’t like knives. brb
