Actually, the idea is really to implement ways to ensure someone gives you the right email address and doesn't, somehow, make a mistake (which effectively means you can't mail to them). For example, writing jim@webste.com instead of jim@website.com Love the comment though :) Not that anyone is a lawyer around here or anything :) And not that anyone would be guilty of the occasional typo!

And just expand it a bit. Typos a the bane of my life. The thing is though, that I am one of those annoying people who can actually spell. So I can recognise a typo when I see one. But we have to accept that not everyone can spell. More, that some people don't think it matters. So, when I see a billboard sign on a building advertising "stationary", I begin to wonder. And when I see the same thing in online sales pages, I become more certain that it is not always just a typo. I guess that I expect people with a higher level of education to know how to at least recognise a spelling error. Apparently I am wrong. The other day, I called on a lawyer. While I was waiting, I picked up her business card. Imagine my surprise to learn that she was a "principle" of the firm. No doubt she is, but I don't think she was using the right word. Do you?
