I am glad it worked out and I think many people would be surprised at the positive responses they would receive- in fact many would probably jump on the bandwagon. After all, most people who care about you are happy to help out. Plus, your wording has a little bit of extra sugar! :) Hi Margaret,

When I once had to do this, I had some trepidation about speaking up rather than just continuing to exercise the delete button, but I had begun to dread seeing his name on the sender line, so I knew I had to act. I wrote to the my friend that I love hearing ALL his personal news and thoughts, which doesn't leave me time to attend to mass forwarded email. I asked, is it possible for me to turn off the forwarded emails without missing a single thing from him personally, which I value so much? He couldn't have been more gracious. I never got another forward. And I remain free to be his friend without dreading the joke lists and cute photos. Thanks for a great post!
