request a mail to connect: how to explode this?

this is the 2nd time Linkedin requires me to add a mail to connect with someone due to the fact ppl dont know me, part is true but it is still the consequence of the vague of ppl i contacted on the 1st time

to whom should i send this mail and is this message worth to make them listen to me

a likedin fan about to go the other way

Complaint about mail request to connect

Hello,

my profile www.linkedin.com/in/........
requests a mail of the person i would like to connect to

this happened after warnings from linkedin that some recipients said they do not know me which in some case they just forgot about me and my intro message was not explicit

i renew my commitment to abide to the terms & services to Linkedin but for God sake, without this, Linkedin is useless to me

Thank you to get it back

Regards,

    Yes, I have the same problem. It's not that the people don't know me, it's more the issue that they don't read their email ever, or not too thoroughly. So, my invitation hangs out there in an inbox forever (I have some in my invitation list literally two years old - and, no, LI rarely cancels [or whatever they call it] them), or the invitee deletes it without realizing what it is.
    I've questioned LI about his a couple times, they had no real answer or solution. My logic is, if I knew the person's email address, I'd email them, and not depend on LI. Even on the first invitation, the email address isn't revealed, so how would I know it on subsequent tries?
    How about this: after an invitation is unresponded for, say, six months, you have the ability to resend with LI inserting the email address again? Or a control setting the reciever can check to not recieve invitations from the same person more than once/twice/three times [a lady] ? LOL
