people who group email with all your details listed are infuriating

[Owllady]

Especially when they have saved to contacts under your child's name, so you know all the children's parents email addresses

Then of course you get the parents who are clicking the reply all button

I DON'T NEED TO KNOW YOU ARE GOING ON HOLIDAY/TO A FAMILY WEDDING/HAVING YOUR GRAN FOR TEA

I bet this has been done to death

Perhaps you could hit 'reply all' with this link and hope that they understand the virtue of keeping everyone's email addresses secure...?

It annoys me too - I've had a few recently (but never any replies to all, so not too bad in the end).

I think it's a bit precious to care about who sees your email address.

However, it's really irritating when people hit 'reply all', but some people are just a bit thick.

I used to work in an organisation with 1,000 staff across several different locations and sometimes Personnel would send an email to everyone about something and somebody would accidentally 'reply to all' - meaning half the world knew all about their chronic medical condition that meant they couldn't comply with this new sick leave procedure.

An old school friend worked as a personal assistant to an actor and occasionally would send around daft chain emails to her entire address book. I wonder if she realised she was passing on the email addresses of a few minor celebs or if it was a stealth brag. I can't imagine they were thrilled.

I most probably am being precious, what a thing to pick to be precious about :o but some of the parents on the list are the confrontational through email type and take competitive parenting to a whole other level
