When I try to contact a seller about combined shipping, I often get a message from eBay saying my email was rejected because I used the used the words "combined shipping" in it. I called and complained, pointing out that such a policy is total madness. It seems like eBay should be making communication between parties easier, not more difficult.

Jeez. Ebay will also reject a message for using the word "invoice". As in "Thanks, I just sent you a combined invoice"....or "Please send me a Paypal invoice for the item I have just won".
It's some sort of trigger word for doing deals off-Ebay, or some such nonsense.
