I have got my email address as xy@z.com where x is one single letter, y is a very common last name, and z is a very popular email server.
I get about 20 emails everyday targeted for other y's

JWZ may be jackass (he is not), but you are shooting yourself in foot if you piss people like him.
Remember only think volunteers ask in return is happiness.
