Well it costing them lot of money doing that way.  At least you have tol 
them of you view's about it.  Then it is up to them, let them pay.

No e-mail is not like letter (post/fax).  If someone sends you mail by 
fax or post you do not send them a copy of there letter in your reply. 
So why do it with e-mail?

Most of the problem is down to fact they e-mail is new thing to most 
people.  Next to no one is show how to write an e-mail, it not like 
letter.

Now IM's are the next big thing to happen in business and it is happing.

But must never forget in business to importance of talking to someone 
one to one.  Even with e-mail, IM's.  Gosh we are IT savvy lot and all 
use this mailing list be we know the importance of talking to one and 
another.

Well that whinge of the day.
