    That certainly isn't a very professional business email. It looks more like 'txt speak' to me.
    I THINK that "mty cntrs" may be "Empty Containers" - e.g. shipping containers.
    BAB - no real idea. It could be an airport/port code - although the IATA code is for Beale Air-force Base - you would have more idea than me if that might be the case.
    DO - no real idea... I have seen do. used as an abbreviation for 'ditto' - but the english in that sentence is so poor that it's hard to tell if that is a sensible meaning or not.
