What's a polite way to close a memo but give this message?

I really want to say, "If you have any questions regarding this memo, please call anybody else but me," but of course I can't say that. What's a subtle way to get that message across.|||If you have any questions regarding this memo....Keep them to yourself, cuz I just don't care!


Sincerely, Mozzie|||"Please feel free to forward any questions you may have to one of my associates"|||Is there someone else you could pawn off the questions on? A fellow employee who happens to be working on the same thing?





Or just "accidentally" leave off the contact line at the end?|||List the specific people appropriate to question.





"If you have any questions, please contact Bob Smith (bsmith@company.com), Jane Doe (jdoe@company.com), or Sam Young (syong@company.com)."





Make sure you won't be stepping on their toes if you do so (i.e., give them warning).|||Try, "I am unable to answer questions regarding this memo. Please direct your questions to ____________. "(Or "the appropriate person/department".)|||If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact (fill in the blank) at ext. (fill in the blank).





This way the recipient knows that they shouldn't contact you.|||any courtesies or considerations in this matter will be greatly appreciated thank you|||"Go take a long walk off a short pier."
