Creating the wrong impression by email

Some people really have the art of writing a great email, you can almost see them smiling when you read it. Others who state each word very clearly and detail what you have done wrong or how much they have been inconvenienced by your error - really come across as rude people you don’t want to know. Also you have never met this person so how do you reply?
Don’t reply is the first reaction, and then you realise you can’t do that – a reply is needed, so I managed a factual one apologising for all the inconveniece and how much time I now too had wasted trying to send a polite reply.
Fair Call?

Don’t you find people who add you to their newsletter lists without your permission rude? I object to having my in-box cluttered up with stuff I didn’t subscribe to, only to have the inconvenience of unsubscribing – that is, if they have an unsubscribing link in the first place.
