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 Mailmug. The most amazing person you will ever meet.She is funny, sweet, will always be there for you no matter what and you can tell all your secrets to her.She is normally shy but once you become best friends, she is the most loyal person ever.Don't ever try to upset or make a Maile mad because they already have trust issues and may cause them to commit self harm when you don't even know it.Mailes hate some people(Specificly hate the name DEVON) If you don't treat them right.
Maile.
