I am happy to anonymous my requests - then they'll have no option other than
to use the single email address provided.

 

It is none of the councils business whether I have asked about info before
or not - councils should respond to the * request* not to the person who
happened to have authored it.

But the request isn't from WDTK, it's from a user of what do they know.
The fact that WDTK collates and presents the content of the mail should not
make be conflated with the request being from WDRK (IANAL, I'm approaching
this from a common sense point of view).  If they applied that it would be
like saying that a reply to a request from [email protected] could be
sent to [email protected] and be legal as they are both hotmail.  In
each case the 'company' is just acting as an intermediary between the
originator of the request and the recipient, WDTK is acting as a specialised
webmail service with added features and support for the end user.

There is a legal precedent (Bernuth Lines Ltd) that ruled that any valid
email address at a company could be used for the service of documents.

Although applying only to maritime arbitration cases, it would suggest
perhaps that any valid WDTK address might constitute a valid response.
