Odd. That sounds like what I have been saying the whole thread.

I think it's safe to say most people do not give a rat's ass if you're right or wrong. You're just some stranger on the internet. The problem here is you're taking this personally because you do not like people's feedback. You believe in your ESP solution, and I can speak from BOTH the ESP as well as in-house solutions when it comes to mailing. I have experience with both, and can actually speak about pretty much anything to do with effective email marketing from years of experience.

At no point did I say that "in-house is the only way to go".

In addition to taking everything personal, you also apparently can't read, so I can completely understand why you would be frustrated. More over, you take me citing that you have a small list as some sort of personal insult, which again, is on you as it was not meant as an insult if you actually read the context of my comments between an ESP solution and an in-house based on needs.

In short, you're getting all bent out of shape either because you can't read helpful remarks in context, or you have tender internet feelings.
