Similar to selective hearing, but when a colleague (usually a Manager) only chooses to respond to e-mails which suit their needs.
Typically, this is because they don't know *how* to respond, as a result of being incompetent.
They do this regardless of the impact their lack of reply has on their staff/colleagues.
Ultimately, they will not be held responsible for their lack of response and the blame will fall on the person who was awaiting their response!

Ben: "Corey, did you get my e-mail last Monday?"
Corey: "Yeah, mate."
Ben: "..... Can you let me know how to move forward on that? I need your guidance."
Corey: "Sure! I'll reply to you when I'm at my desk."
Matt: "Corey won't reply to your e-mail. He has selective e-mail, remember?"
Ben: "Shit."

What would you say when you aré so dumb that the only way to keep your company is to lie to the investors and to the managers, who then fabricate lies to the workers and those need to lie to get work. Then lie to everyone you are actually progressing with something amazing and catchy every time you get kicked in the balls and force customers to get in as non paid employees to do your work?
"My department manager just told me i will never work in the industry again because he assigned me to do something i was never hired or qualified to do and then forced me to NDA about it. That is such a E-AI thing to do man!"
