When I see sloppy spelling and presentation it detracts from the message that is trying to be conveyed.
I trust the source, and the message, far less when I see this sort of thing.
Sure, none of us has perfect spelling, and no-one uses the spell checker every time, but that amount of basic errors does not speak well.
