Well, I suppose if one doesn't want communications from an employer then
there is always an option of working for oneself.
It is considered usual in one way or another for employers to want to
communicate with their staff.
Clearly this is not to be abused and if an employer was to send out
frivolous material this would not be in the interest of the employer.
I would be interested to know whether you give the same advice from your
consultancy as you do in this Discussion Group - which generally seems to be
whatever is proposed that you can't.
