"Numerous studies conclude that the more you interact with someone, the more he or she will like you."
"Studies conclude that if he started out not liking you and gradually came around to liking you, he will eventually like you more than if he had liked you right from he beginning."
- David Lieberman
When I changed jobs I was thrust into some projects which were basically attempting to resolve long-standing conflicts. Those conflicts remain, but I imagine that what has drawn the most success is not the end product, but the respect around it. E-mail debates may solve things technically, but do little personally. Personal interaction, with genuine listening and validation of the nuggets of truth on all sides, builds productive teams.
