While I do not work for TLC as Ashley does, I wonder if you would be
satisfied if they had an auto reply system setup to automatically send a
message like, "Thank you for contacting LEGO Direct. While we value your
comments and questions we are unable to respond to each email personally. Be
assured we do read each email and want to thank you for contacting us."
whenever any email was sent to legodirect@lego.com ?

It would be pretty easy to implement something like this.  Of course the
question is, "Is a form letter response better than no response at all?"

I don't work for LEGO either, but until the time that Brad J. showed
up it was impossible to find a publicly acknowledged EMAIL address AT
ALL, let alone get a reply.  So this is already a step in the right
direction.  I assume that this was partly to avoid getting sued over
"I sent this idea in then a year later here's this theme that I sent
in on the shelves" type lawsuit.  The other part I suspect is lack of
desire/reconition of the need to interact with us on the 'net.  Well
this is *MY* take on the whole deal.  So would a auto-responder even
BE a good idea?  I sure don't know, that's for LEGO to decide, so far
it hasn't been implemented.

Oh, congrats Ashley on your job :^)
