Or how about reciprocate once in awhile with a forward of your own! If I never hear back from someone, their email address gets deleted from my forwarding list. Months later, they'll say, "I never hear from you anymore!" to which I reply, "Yes, if there's no response or reciprocity from a particular email address for several months, my program deletes the address".
