Personalized note with feedback, but he also got my name wrong and the title of my novel wrong. Twice. So maybe the rejection was for the best :)

Full request rejected after a couple of weeks. No comments, but at least he didn't keep me waiting forever.

Went over the MS completely over the last two weeks and found some broken hyperlinks--fixed those and made some other minor edits. Emailed the revised file today. I sure don't miss taking my manuscript boxes to the P.O. to mail out at the media rate.

Overnight request for Proposal and full ms. Mr. de Spoelberch has only seen my query letter, which I've honed and edited again and again for months. I'm happy and humbled--this is the agent who repped "Deliverance."!

Email rejection: 06/08/2021 -- Mr. de Spoelberch's reply was both gracious and encouraging, saying he regretted he didn't think he would be my novel's best agent advocate. He gave a suggestion for improvement, for which I am grateful.

Got a very prompt request to read the manuscript, delay due to internet outages (though actually, it didn't seem too delayed to me), and then a very kind, very flattering rejection. Sadly, my MS was on the same topic as another he's repping. But he was very kind and very encouraging, and I was grateful for his professionalism.
