confused in colorado

ok so i don't have the most popular of names. it's a bit odd... off the beaten track. all told there are probably only enough doreys to fill a clown car (one on the larger side, yes...), and then you tack my first name onto the front and that's gotta narrow the field by a factor of at least 10. so... recently someone with my very same name has gotten it into his head that he's sending emails to himself, only he's addressing them to someone named paul. so this is even weirder cause paul was my father's name.

here's the first email exchange - his number has been omitted...

Dear Paul,
I wanted to let you know that I have dropped our security deposit in the
mail today, and it should arrive shortly.

I will contact you again as Aug. 1 approaches to setup a day for move-in and
check-in.

Thanks,
Dave

i politely responded that he must be confuzzled for the following reasons: i'm not paul, i have the same name as he does, and he adds a dot in the middle of my email address (which google doesn't recognize - they say so right here).

i responded with the following...

Hi there,

Unfortunately you've got the wrong email (while mine doesn't have a
dot in the address it still made it to my inbox) - while we share a
great name I don't live anywhere near Colorado and do not know Paul.

All the best and hope you get it figured out,

Dave.

i thought this would have settled it right there... but no, i was wrong. today i get the second message...

Dear Paul,
Thanks again for your call the other day regarding putting in wood floors
upstairs.

I was wondering, since there will already be construction going on in the
house at this point, if it would be too much trouble to ask to have a door
put on the third bedroom upstairs where I will be staying?

I noticed that this last year the screen had broken on the guy who was
staying in the room, so I thought it might be a useful change to safeguard
against future breaks.

Just thought I'd ask.

Thanks,

Dave Dorey

so... i responded with the short, but i consider witty, rejoinder...

I'm not Paul so while your request sounds reasonable I cannot fulfill it.

once again... you've got a great name but i think you're confused about where you're sending emails.

dave.

i'll keep you posted on where this goes...
