I can tell you right now that a gentle reminder will have very little 
effect.

I know this because the absolutely vast, exceedingly non gentle, four 
language reminder about using the web site to reply rather than email is 
ignored by large numbers of people every day. Most amusing are the ones 
who carefully strip the notice off when replying without actually 
managing to take any notice of it.
