Sir! What do you take me for?!

I placed an online order yesterday, and, as is my habit, submitted with it a disposable Spamgourmet email address, an invaluable tool in the fight against spam, sign up for an account today, this has been an unremunerated endorsement for a free service.

I'm still chuckling over this petulant response:

We received your order and are not intent on selling or sharing your email address in any way. Your spamgourmet email address lets me know you think otherwise. Your order will ship within the next day or two. You could just ask us not to send you emails. For now, I will remove you from any future mailings from our company at this email unless you state otherwise.
