Yeah, forwarding is a difficult problem in the modern, spam-filled world of email. MAAWG recently published a set of recommendations for both forwarders and receivers of forwarded mail, which may help somewhat -- but there's no easy answer.
Heh, from the headline I hoped this might be about one of my favorite quotes from the Simpsons: "I'm a level five vegan. I don't eat anything that casts a shadow."
Some years ago, I worked for a fast-paced young startup with a close-knit culture. When the new CEO came in, he brought in a whole new staff from his last job -- including a sales team which had their own culture, entirely different from ours.
In a lot of ways, it was the standard clash of nerds & misfits vs. the jocks -- we even called the salesguys "the football team." Problem was, the jocks had the ear of senior management, and the nerds who'd built that company and understood the products and knew what to do next were left entirely without a voice.
Ten years later, many in that new management team have had legal troubles (one even went to jail), while most of us nerds are still close friends -- but we're scattered through the industry.
Back to your points: a bad cultural fit at lower levels can be dealt with by that person's manager, and above. The higher-up that person is, the fewer people there are who can deal with any problems. I'm glad you're my CEO.
