What the user is doing

My correspondents are those who:

1. I have found through my enquiries
2. have invited me from their enquiries

Someone does not become my correspondent just through my appearing on their list. I may be one of 9 to them, but they may be one of a thousand to me. It is when they invite me that I become special.

• deciding whether a correspondent is worth contacting
• deciding whether to look into any answer history
• reflecting on whether any of own answers might be problematic
• deciding whether to block (or unblock) this correspondent

---

Post-processing

• if withdrawn, cancel invitation
• if the correspondent is blocked, cancel all invitations for the blocked person.

---

Information output

• any change of contact status
• question ID if looking at any answer

Listing dates

The date of being listed as a correspondent on this enquiry is not necessarily the date of being listed as a correspondent, because another listing may have previously happened. Need to keep track of listing dates separately.

If one Enquirer Enquiry fits two or more Enquiries from the same Respondent

Simply aggregate the answers. The point here is that there is no need to distinguish different correspondent enquiries: the point is to find fit.
