Guess you can't use "ask paul" to criticize the Tr

I got this email returned to me undelivered, from when I submitted something to "Ask Paul". I didn't know van dyck's or sullivans email address so I sent it this way. My comment to them is bolded.

"Cedeno out as Guzman arrives

When the Cubs activate Angel Guzman for Sunday's game, infielder Ronny Cedeno will be sent to Triple-A Iowa, meaning outfielder Felix Pie will stay for a while.

 

While the club made no official announcement, Cedeno was seen packing his bags after Saturday's loss. He was hitting .097 and said he didn't want to talk about his demotion." Is the proofreading or writing at the Trib so awful they can't even get basic facts like the Cubs winning correct in their own stories? Maybe Zell should hire bloggers to write the sports articles for the Trib.

Huh? They never received the email. That has nothing to do with the content of the email. Either the mail box was full, bad email address, or they've got internal problems with their system. Are you sure it's AOL and not a trib address? Either way, your assumption that you got the bounce message because they didn't like your criticism is wrong.

Yeah, that was a problem with their mail server.

I sent it through the "Ask Paul" box on the Trib's website. How it went to AOL I have no idea. Since it took about 3 or 4 days to reply to me, I guess they have real bad problems with their system.

The website's form still needs a valid email address to route the message. That's how it went to AOL. If there's a problem with the delivery, the mail system will automatically try X number of times over Y minutes/hours/days before it finally gives up and sends you a message back.

 

You're right that they couldn't take this criticism because they didn't get this criticism.
