It took 2 emails. First was sent on a Monday, but I received no response. On Friday of the same week I sent a followup request, and received the answer within 3 hours.

I will add that my email was about some bonus miles that I hoped would post to the e-miles account in time to redeem 500 miles and have them show up in my Delta account before March 15. My mention of the Delta promotion was what prompted the response about activity in the e-miles account counting toward the partner promotion.

I remain skeptical about this information, because I don't understand how e-miles activity would post to a Delta account in a manner that would qualify as partner activity. It can't show up as miles, because no miles were earned. What's the alternative?
