Anyone else have some more ideas? I'll blog the final results :) How to have your emails ignored: Start the email with "URGENT" Tell everyone how desparate you and how you need an immediate response for your really important project. Don't wait a minimum of 3 days and resend your email within minutes of hours. Send emails directly to mailing list members, especially the developers. Paste pages of code and then say "it doesn't work, please help". Paste a long stack trace and say "it doesn't work, please help". Start your email with "please sirs" or include "do the needful". Ask dumb questions that are in the manual. Ask basic java questions.
