 Do people ever forgive and forget?
Forgive yes, forget no.
And if you DON'T want contact, to talk to hear him out, make his e-mail go to the spam folder (not hard to set up) that way he can wrote all he wants and you will never see the e-mails.
You do NOT owe him any courtesy of reading his e-mail or talking/listening to him.
Who cares what he wants?! My guess is... he is either curious about what you are up to now, or he wants to "unburden" himself with the guilt for treating you badly in the past - either way - this e-mail IS not written for YOUR sake, only his.

I blocked an ex several years ago I just forgot about it to be honest. They contacted my mum to try and get hold of me years later apparently to appologise to me and ease their guilt. I never contacted them or unblocked. I can appreciate the appology but after so long its just not important to me anymore.Past is past, I don't feel its my responsibility to ease their conscience. either.Nothing good comes of raking up exs in my opinion!

Is there really anything you want from them anymore? Already it has been a year or two, and there is no reason to get back together with an ex, so why talk? You are not friends, you are not looking to be lovers again.
Leave it be.
