This is almost edging on a kind of Streisand effect[1]...

is a legit email, if you plan on making official statements regarding an 
employee's obviously personal opinion[2], it is probably more effective 
in my view to consider using your organisation's email address?

As for the Bluecat Networks' sales droids who, in my opinion, obviously 
pressed for this statement to be released, congratulations It is this 
attempt to censor opinion rather than to actually improve your customers 
opinion of you that has guaranteed I will not even look at your product 
line.
