Just wondering, but wouldn't you call first if the issue was truly urgent instead of emailing? If it's not truly urgent then...?
BTW, my more courteous vendors (i.e. those that can expect regular purchases) are kind enough to email or even call me proactively, *before they leave*, letting me know the dates, who I can mail in their absence and would I like to expedite anything through. Some may call *that* spammy but I've let them know it's ok since it's an ongoing relationship and they're not pushing anything, just being friendly and informative.
