May be hard to believe it, but email the other day has been worse.
I know that editors sometimes do shitty things. I know that referees sometimes write things that are pretty inappropriate. And I know rejections, whatever the reason behind them, sting an awful lot.
But for the love Zeus, let's not pretend that any of this justifies behaving like a twit.

Apparently, when some scientific journals publish an Expression of Concern on an article, they don't display it on the article itself. So, readers have no way of knowing an EoC exists, which rather defeats the purpose.
Refuse to review for or submit to journals that do this, & tell them why.
