I read both.

I pay closer attention to the declines, as I want to know where I went wrong so that I never make the same mistake again... It's really helpful to get those emails. :D

Same as everyone. Thoroughly examine the rejection ones, act like a prick and email back even if the guy said "find me on gg&j" :D and quiclky scan over the accepted ones but that's also because I don't like having unread messages in my inbox.

I always read them and very much appreciate those rejection emails that specify why it was rejected. I keep track of freesites I've built, who they were submitted to, accepted by, rejected by and why in my database. If I've submitted more than one freesite in a particular niche to a LL and they don't send acceptance/rejection email, even though my stats may show traffic from that LL's niche page, I have no idea which freesite is generating the traffic.

I use to send out rejections with a reason why, but after several replied to just argue about the reasons I gave up.

oh and when I submit I never trust the "you have been listed" replies as I have found many that never really listed any sites, hell a few didn't even have the link lists any more but were still sending out you were listed lol

That's why I'm special. I don't mind discussing why chose to reject someone's site, even if I have a pretty lame reason. ;) I won't do it via email though. If they want to reproach me or argue their point, they've got be willing to do it on the board. Keeps everyone honest. I send out a lot of rejections, but very few even ask for further details or let me know if I'm wrong about some assumption I've made.

Which reminds me - I've sent out a bunch of rejections this week with the reason 'Autosubmitted' and not single submitter has spoken up to deny it. Very sad.

Damn UW your wife must be incredibly strong

I read both accept/reject mails. I really want to know who lists my sites and not. I hope to see more LLs send out mails.

I like reading both rejection and acceptance emails. The former I learn from, while the acceptance emails put a smile on my face. Then again, I do not submit very often.

:D Thick thighs.

I always read every acceptance and rejection Email. Obviously I don't like getting rejected but how else can you learn?
The only thing that pisses me off is when the rejection is unnecessarily rude. This is very rare and I just stop submitting to that LL. |thumb

I don't do much TGP submission, but I always read whatever notifications I get back from them.

I read both acceptance and rejection letters. I recently received my first
rejection letter and replied to the webmaster
regarding the problem -- he was very
pleased that I had even bothered to
read my email! I thought everyone did,
but apparently not.

I like to know where I've been listed if
my submission is accepted, and to learn
from my errors if my site was rejected.

Additionally, as I am a newbie at building
and submitting freesites, acceptance/rejection emails provide me with a way to get to know the people
behind the linklists -- that would be
you guys! |waves|

I always read the rejections if I get one. There has been some helpful advice on them. Then save all as a backup of record I submitted there if ever needed. You never know when you`ll have to resubmit for something simple or whatever. And the acceptace emails sometimes contain additional correspondence, comments and site update info.
