    Oooh - look what I found. This is from a website of a Swedish dog behaviourist Anders Hallgren (I have had the pleasure to meet him):

    Dogs and mailmen (1975)
    This was a very small study, consisting of 12 dogs that were aggressive against mailmen. I conducted it just to test a simple training idea I had. It was only published as an article in a dog magazine (Vi Hundägare). Every day I sent an envelope, addressed to the dog in the household, containing a treat. All dogs in this study associated the treat-envelope with the mailman and after two weeks they were no longer aggressive. Since that time, this has been the most used and the most effective training method for this problem.

    I am fine. Keep falling asleep as blood sugars are not too good. Dr's have given me strict instructions and i am following them. I quite like being ordered to rest. I haven't been to London this week as i was too tired but i will try next week.

    How are you?
