4 blocking my emails.

Which, as many others have noted, is weird. Why go to the trouble of blocking my email but not ignoring me? I've sent maybe 10 private messages in the year I've been here and they were all either in response to messages to me or, in 1 or 2 cases, in support of something posted in a forum or an explanation of something posted in a forum. It's not like I'm death threat guy.
