The guy is quite old, will those frequencies affect him?

Urgh. People who always bring cake into the office then mail the entire distribution list to announce it use Comic Sans.

The font of choice for s.

Ok, so I work as part of a small team, 6 of us. Most of us communicate verbally, apart from one tt who only ever emails, always in the most childish, ish, unprofessional font I know.

I've always suspected him to be a bit iffy, underhand, I know he also jumps sales from people and has no dispute resolution skills (smallest issue gets escalated to top management) this nearly cost me my job during my probation period.

Any ideas on how to deal with this tt?

Ps, appologies for any spelling and grammar issues. Posting from a phone.

Depending on how he jumps sales.
Get a mate to register a spurious e-mail like [e-mail] with what looks like a really good sales opportunity and send it to you, type a reply in which you appear very interested and print it without sending.
Delete the reply and send back something asking the sender why he thinks you are stupid enough to reply to an obvious spoof and send.
Let said see printed copy and hopefully he will waste time on it.
Now report him for nicking your clients and the evidence is there that not only is he nicking your clients but he is also too stupid to know when it's kids messing about.

The fake reply will have your name on it.
