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."

Get the E-girlmug. When two medium range city in AOZ attack each other with rocket soldiers. The penis shaped rocket tips explode onto each similarly to a natural docking where two men go tip to tip. The alpha uses loose skin preferably foreskin to “Chinese finger trap” the shafts.
(904) God of death likes to dock in his free time with strangers and e-docking when he catches an STD.
