[Aroid-l] FW: Anthurium Request
|
From: philofan at philodendron.org (Tom Vincze) on 2007.08.17 at 19:24:24(16118)
It is most apparent from that, that people can't or don't read the
explanations. I would simply put a few links under your "Looking for
seeds" page to places that sell plants or seeds and thereby direct
the traffic away from your inbox.
You do have the disclaimer, so you are not obliged to reply. However,
you can always add an autoresponder with your disclaimer and only
reply to the relevant emails. That counts.
I like to use CGI forms on contact pages which can also help you
screen emails and keep your email address discreet. In combination
with an FAQ (linked on the contact page), we respond only to relevant
requests (and only have time for that!). Just some ideas to hopefully
save you a little time.
