I get bank statements, job offers, party invitations, and lately a bunch of lets say very questionable email verifications from euro 'dating' sites- I've identified the guy in the UK but its too much (and getting embarrassing now) to keep forwarding his stuff to him.

Downside of getting in early on popular email services.

I went through several rounds of conversation with somebody's wedding planner over email.

What amazes me is when I get misaddressed email, and I reply to say its misaddressed (and I'm not talking about automated services, I'm talking about obviously manually sent stuff), and my reply just gets ignored and the misaddressed email just keeps on coming.

Somebody keeps phoning me and leaving messages. They don't answer their own phone (or messages clearly). I even have a sarky voicemail now, you'd think they'd notice. Nope!

Lady, whoever you think is going to be at that funeral isn't getting that message.

I've no idea if they'll get disconnected now as I've blocked their number. Hope so maybe they'll notice then.

That's the most surreal, when you try to fix it and the behavior never changes.

My gmail is two initials and last name, so theoretically less susceptible to such errors. Yet I get misaddressed mail all the time—and a surprising amount of it is job applications!
