Unless I've very strong incentives to answer, I usually put people who dare sending me an email with only “Hello?” or “ping” in it in my “least urgency queue”, if not directly in my spam folder.
- la_barba 7y agoIf you had good reasons to ignore their previous emails you should let them know.
- ygrtil 7y agoThe sender has forced themselves into my life, and I'm expected to spend my time to tell them that they're unwelcome?
- la_barba 7y agoIf you work with the sender or if they are your friend, or otherwise are known to you - then yes. I'm obviously obviously not talking about replying to spammers here.
- chucksmash 7y agoIf you have good reasons to ignore them they probably already know them.
- la_barba 7y agoDepends, but I wouldn't want to work with someone who ignores my emails.
- Arkanosis 7y agoIn my book, “Hello?” deserves no answer and I'm very fine with whoever sends that not willing to send me more emails. The previous emails might deserve an answer I just haven't had the time to send yet, but for otherwise equally important emails, the one from the most annoying / disrespectful sender will be handled last, if ever.
