I second that. My company has developed a secure email product that includes alternate text for e-mail clients who do not support HTML (they can't render images). Our customers would freak if we used anything but professional wording. I also get alternate text in response to an online download request. If that response was as rude as the ones commonly used by spammers, I would totally ignore the entire email even though I initiated contact.
