SIR – In Postings From Our Website (T&A, August, 15) “Joedavid” complains that although he is on the mail preference scheme not to have junk mail, he has started to receive it.

So what? Does he not realise that changes have had to be made at Royal Mail as fewer letters are being sent?

The revenue received by Royal Mail for delivering junk mail has saved many postal workers from losing their jobs. Life is not all about you, “Joedavid”.
