I don't understand why you focus on my name in your example. I disagree 
with your description of me as a stone-throwing person.

About my "best wishes" signature: it accompanies all of my DCML emails. 
I wish everyone the best, so I've never been concerned about which of my 
emails can or cannot be accompanied with "best wishes" as signature. 

Maybe it's an improper or strange way of greeting people in English? 
If so, I will change it into something else. I welcome any advice on this.

I very much appreciated receiving that scan and I still appreciate it.
Not only because of the scan itself, but especially because I received 
it from you. We've had a disagreement or two in the past and so I was 
very thankful to see that those matters between us indeed could be 
dropped, and that we could still have a friendly communication.

Therefore I already intended to give you some issues of the money bin 
blueprint story as soon as it is published here in The Netherlands. 
(I noticed that you are interested in receiving foreign copies of 
that story.) I hope you will accept these comics from me, and I also 
hope that we can continue communicating on a friendly basis.


Best wishes,

--- Daniel
