While you are correct, the simplest thing to do is use your delete key. I go 
through email before reading any of it and generally the subject line tells 
what it's about. I delete easily half of the pack before opening any.....topics 
Corsair II, low volume , etc. It will save stress and won't offend anyone.

I don't know about others but I receive the TenTec email to learn about tricks 
in operating and problems people are having but for the last couple of months 
all I'm getting is net net net net net net net net net net net net net net net 
net net net net net net net net net net.  I'll give another month then I'm GONE
