Welllll...maybe he felt he was a young 46. I don't know...I know you meant well, but your email sounded a *little* condescending to me. But that's the problem with those type of emails...I don't think there's *any* good way to say "thanks but no thanks". Which is why I don't send them, and hate getting them.
But that of course doesn't excuse his rudeness!!!!
I got one a month or two ago where the guy lived on an island a couple hours north of me (I didn't realize where he was until we'd exchange a couple emails). I said I wasn't interested in dating anyone that far away but perhaps we could be platonic friends. He wrote back a nasty email saying something like good luck with the crime in the city or something ridiculous (I deleted it so I can't remember exactly what it was) and he made fun of me for offering friendship. Whatever, dude!
OH, NO, you put the ultimate condescending phrase in your email, LOL!!!! "Good luck to you", ouch!!!! I'm joking, of course, but I *do* curse at the computer screen when someone writes that to me ;-).
I can only speak for myself, but if I sent an email like that (took a chance on being outside one of the person's parameters if I otherwise met them), I'd either want a response saying that you were willing to give me a shot, despite the age difference, or I'd want NO response.
Are you asking what people expect to accomplish by sending nasty grams? That I surely do not know!
He's a piece of s***. What a loser. I get so tired of men way outside my age range thinking I would want them. Hey, men practice age discrimination, why shouldn't we? I just want soemone around my own age or who at least is youthful in his outlook.

sounds like someone (him) doesn't handle rejection too well huh? WOW!
He must be a VERY YOUNG 46 (about 12 maybe) to send a message like that. How juvenile of him!

I agree with you that they sound condescending which is why I don't usually send them either.

Man, what a jacka$$! I have no idea why people feel the need to do that. That seems to be
