[dvdvol] Question regarding barrage of Chilean Requests

[John Hagerson]

What I had planned to do is this: When the Chilean requests with
insufficient information get to the top of the list, check them out, send an
e-mail message that indicates what information is missing, invite them to
respond directly to me with the missing information, and mark the request
not completable. If and when they respond with the missing information, I
would check out the request, update the request with the provided data, and
send the requested materials.

Aaron, because you are conversant in Spanish (and I most definitely am not),
if you want to take time to clean up the list before we get down to those
incomplete requests, please do not hesitate to do so.

How does this sound to you?

John

Thanks for the info.  John, what I think we should do in this case is 
delete those requests with invalid addresses, and send them all an e-mail, 
requesting that they return to the web site and supply a complete address.

Thoughts?

Sincerely
Aaron Cannon
